qjoypad: Start QJoyPad but don't show a system tray icon.

qjoypad

$ qjoypad --notray

try on your machine

The command "qjoypad --notray" is used to run the qjoypad program without displaying its icon in the system tray.

Qjoypad is a Linux/Unix program that allows you to use your joystick/gamepad as a keyboard or mouse. It enables you to map the joystick buttons and axis movements to specific keyboard keys, mouse actions, or even system commands. This can be useful for various purposes, such as playing games that don't have gamepad support or controlling multimedia applications.

By including the "--notray" option in the command, the program's system tray icon is not displayed. The system tray, also known as the notification area or status area, is a section in the desktop taskbar where icons of running programs are shown. By not displaying the icon, the program will still run and function, but its presence will not be visible in the system tray.
