Question
I'm developing a small tray-icon application for Windows and I need to display non-intrusive visual notifications similar to those that appear when you receive a new message in MSN Messenger or any other IM application.
I have looked at Snarl, but it seems to be a separate application that I need to install. I want something that could be bundled with my application in one installer, a library.
Which one do you recommend?
Python support is a huge plus.
Solution
You can do it by depending on a GUI library.
For example, with PyQt,it is possible :
Example of QSystemTrayIcon (in C++, easy to adapt to python)
OTHER TIPS
Are you developing the application in Python? It depends what GUI toolkit you're using.
If you're using wxPython, you could try ToasterBox, or the wxPopupWindow.
You don't need anyhting. Just use toasters windows with Win32 api
