Ready made script to put calibre in tray auto

[mohamedselim]

Tried in windows 8.1 64bit but may work in other versions
I tried to run caliber in system tray automatically during system start up for the caliber server to work and not to block the desktop by the full gui (all in one machine for Kodi, caliber server, sftp server etc acting as server and Kodi htpc) so I came with this script
1-enable caliber tray icon in caliber preferences/ look and feel

2-download batch and put in any place in your computer and create short cut of it and place in startup folder of computer

3-restart and try !!!

Alternatively, you can run the server via the command-line using

calibre-server

This will not run the GUI at all, and will default to your current library with the current Sharing over the Net settings.

If you want the GUI to run as well, in case you need to use it, then you may prefer to launch the main command and keep it in the tray, but if you just want to run the server, there is no strict need to run the GUI at all.

Hope this helps.
