Is it possible to create a tray applet with Qt?

Question

I want to make a tray applet using Qt that will use an output from a bash script to show some basic info. Is that possible to do in Qt? I wasn't able to find any tutorial via google, though.

Answer 1

What about the System Tray Icon Example?

(Please note that the term "applet" is something different than the term "tray icon". The former is used for something more than just an icon and in most cases (which is very system dependent) a background process and placed by the user into the tray bar, where your tray icon is put in the system tray bar by a foreground application.)
