I just don't know how to set an icon, and the example doesn't help at all.

I found the example to be particularly helpful, and I have made a simplified version just to display an icon with a quit button in its menu. Once I know how to do that I will incorporate it into my larger program, with more options and the ability show messages. The problem is, it doesn't work, and I can't find out what's wrong.

Using QSystemTrayIcon with PyQt
Hello, I am pretty new to Python, and have never learned C++. I am trying to implement the following thing into my python application: http://doc.trolltech.com/4.3/qsystemtrayicon.html Through PyQt. I have been using PyQt for awhile and I know how do use it, but I could not get this specific thing to work. Can someone give me some hints as to get it working in Python? Thanks a ton, Alex -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
