taskbar applications

2008-02-12 Thread viktoras didziulis
i would appreciate a few hints on how do we create taskbar applications 
in Revolution on Windows. I.e. something like Revolution player, skype 
or anything like that where user sees an icon of a running application 
sitting in the taskbar. If he clicks that icon with mouse - context menu 
appears... How do we set application to be loaded on startup 
automatically ? I would like to add this option to preferences of my 
app, will it have to mess with windows xp registry or are there other 
ways? Any hints, online tutorials also on how do we do this on Mac, Linux ?


Many thanks in advance!
Viktoras

See Currently Unsupported Features in 'Whats_New.txt' in Rev app folder:
the icon, the iconMenu, iconMenuOpening and iconMenuPick
Another alternative is STSTray from Ken Ray (http://

Put a shortcut/alias into startup folder.

I would like to add this option to preferences of my app, will it  
have to mess with windows xp registry or are there other ways? Any

Many thanks in advance!
