It was quite a while ago when I was playing with this. I guess it would definitely be a few versions back. It was on xp though.

I have been trying to discover the environment you used to build and run this. the wx code seems limited to Python 2.7 (3.1 is current).. and I don’t know where the __win32gui__ stuff comes from.

running on xp.

thanks for any guidance

Thanks for sharing this! I am just starting out with Python, and have been looking for good examples of how to use some of the wxPython classes, like TaskbarIcon..

Glad it was useful. Let me know if you make any cool improvements. Thanks for catching the typo. I just fixed it above.

Thanks for the script! I’m finding it useful. Two notes:

1. You can also hide the Console window by using “.pyw” instead of “.py” as the file extension.

2. The code here has a typo: the method that should be called StartIconTiemr() is actually a second copy of StopIconTimer().
