Please state what version you are using and what distribution when
filing bugs. The behavior you describe is not what I experience in 1.1.0
using a binary I built. Left click hides and shows the interface.

I'm guessing you are using a package from the official Ubuntu
repositories? If that's the case, the Ubuntu people have added a patch
that replaces the GTK+ status icon with an app indicator via the library
libappindicator. We turned down this patch for inclusion into LinuxDC++
since it's Ubuntu-specific. If you have some issue with the app
indicator I can forward this bug to the Ubuntu people, but there's
nothing we can do to fix Ubuntu specific patches.

Title:
  bring window to front on left clicking the status icon

Status in Linux DC++:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  When left clicking on the status icon, a context menu pops up, which
  is what you expect when you _right_ click it. (And which happens also
  if you do.)

   I would expect a left click to:
   + bring the window to the front if it's already shown
   + show the window if it's hidden
   + hide the window if its shown and in the foreground
  like other programs (e.g. Amarok) do it.

  This feels much more natural and if would make the icon in the
  notification area of gnome (e.g.) much more usable for me and for many
  others. Therefore I would recommend changing the behaviour to the
  above explained.
