No minimize or maximize windows option

[scotthibbs]

Summary

When testing the program, I found myself accidently closing the program to write an email or look at github and discovered the reason I am doing this as there is only a red X close button at the top of the form. I'm clicking this out of habit to remove the program from the desktop when I should click away. The user may also want to maximize the program.

Motivation

This is a normal function of a modern windows program.

Detailed Description

The normal maximize and minimize buttons at the top of the form of the program.

I discovered it is easy to add either Minimize or Maximize buttons to the application window/form. I tried both. The Minimize button works great. However, the Maximize button maximizes the application window, but the form is not designed to be maximize yet (the log window becomes very large; the other application areas do not resize, nor should they).

Anyway, adding the Minimize is easy to to.

Tested and verified minimize button works in 1.85.1.

I will open another issue for a maximize button for the future.
