Comment(by qwertymodo):

 I know there aren't any command-line options for doing it, that's why I
 created an enhancement ticket asking for one.  Also, unfortunately
 WM_CLOSE just minimizes the program to the tray, it doesn't exit the
 program.  I am able to make system calls as well if only I knew what to
 do.  Is there a window class/window message combination that would do what
 I want?  I've managed to enumerate all open windows and associate them to
 their PID, but at this point it's just kind of a shot in the dark.  The
 closest I've come is the WinpidginSystrayWinCls window class, but sending
 WM_CLOSE to it just makes the system tray icon disappear.  Am I on the
 right track?  I'm not looking to write a plugin.
