----quoted---- This is untested, 'cos I'm on a Mac these days, but what you want should look something like:
from SysTrayIcon import SysTrayIcon icon = SysTrayIcon('parh/to/icon.ico', "Hover text", {}) How simple do you want? ----/quoted---- I guess I still don't get it. The code you supplied creates an icon and then hangs. from SysTrayIcon import SysTrayIcon icon = SysTrayIcon('PathToMyIcon', "My Application",()) while 1: DoStuff() DoStuff doesn't do happen until I choose 'QUIT' from the icon menu. Any help? I feel like I'm missing something really fundamental here. Thanks again. Louis -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
