Minimise Python to System Tray and Generate Notifications? [duplicate]

Question

I've had a look around but haven't been able to find anything to get close to doing what I want.

I want to make my Python script launch as a minimised system tray application or have the ability to minimise to system tray and also have the ability to make system tray notifications

Any one have any ideas/libraries or examples?

Thanks - Hyflex

Thanks for that, such a simple change to get it going >_< Now I've got to find something for notifications — Ryflex

I would start by reading this.

Then as our friends here suggested in the comments , you could use SysTrayIcon.py to show your application in a system tray .

As of displaying notifications you should check Win32 Python Extensions which has an example in Lib\site-packages\win32\demos\win32gui_menu.py . that should help you get started .
