      @peterjones Does this trigger a save request or does it save everything without asking?

        @themark2580 ,

        Just like the File > Save All, it will save all files that are already named, and it will prompt on any unnamed files (new 1 and its ilk)

          All this does not matter, because with the script, the X button simply becomes the “minimize window” button and nothing more.

          Yes, but the problem as originally stated dealt with your “bad habit” of pressing the X and thinking it would minimize to tray. The workaround script worked around that bad habit.

          I want it to be standard functionality

          It’s good to want things. It is also good to consider workarounds when you can’t have exactly what you want.

              Nearly a year ago, @alan-kilborn said in Minimize notepad++ to tray instead of closing.:

              I’m not inclined to open an issue about it

              and I replied,

              Okay, then I have. I think that’s a general-purpose enough desire to not require a “generic user” be the one to ask for it. There shouldn’t be a menu or dialog label in the main application that isn’t translatable, IMO.

              They just fixed it. I wonder what prompted them to notice and fix that issue. (I had completely forgotten about it, and was surprised when I got the notification. Then, because I didn’t link here from the issue, I had to search the forum for what prompted that issue, because it’s not something I would have run across on my own.)

                I think a developer was working on a batch of translating issues, and just gathered that one into the batch.
