SYNOPSIS
trayer [OPTIONS]
DESCRIPTION
trayer is a lightweight GTK-2 based system tray panel. It provides a standalone systray that can be used with minimalist window managers that don't include their own system tray implementation.
The panel displays system tray icons from applications and can be positioned and sized according to user preferences.
