Hi all!
Pressing the Windows key + M minimizes all programs, but if my
app has opened a modal form it doesn't get minimized. How do I
achieve it to get my app minimized though?

So far I have only found out that apps don't receive a minimize
message when Win-M is pressed, i.e. Win-M is different from 
pressing the minimize icon of the app's main form. So I wonder
what message to catch instead.
