tkinter.systraymodule wrapping thetk systrayandtk sysnotifycommands (Tk 8.7/9.0 and newer), which display a system tray (or taskbar) icon and send desktop notifications.SysTrayIconwrapstk systray. Only one icon exists per Tcl interpreter, soSysTrayIconis a handle to it: withexists=False(the default) a new icon is created (and a second one raisesTclError), and withexists=Truethe instance refers to the already-existing icon. It supports the image, text, button1 and button3 options,configure()/config(),cget(),exists()anddestroy().notify()andSysTrayIcon.notify()wraptk sysnotify. On Windows a notification requires an existing tray icon, so the module function is for the other platforms and the method for Windows.The tests require a GUI and create a real tray icon, so they are skipped where one cannot be created.
