Final Note
Llama Carbon Copy is designed to stay out of your way while you work. If you minimize the Llama Carbon Copy main

bar real estate. At any time you can get the Llama Carbon Copy main window back by clicking on the system tray icon
located in the bottom right hand corner of your screen. It is the two orange llamas in the picture below:
