 I found this code while searching how to compile a trayicon library
 for python. There is an article on this subject at IBM
 http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-wrap/
 
 Their code does not work anymore but I found modified versions.
 However URLs which provide these source codes are not usable (html web
 pages, forum messages).
 
 I thought later that I can provide diff files from the original source
 code instead of a directory, but size of the directory (30ko) is only
 twice the size of diff files (13 ko) so ...
 
 I can use py-gnome-extras (available since 31 may 2005) which seems to
 provide this library. But it requires to install a lot of things for
 only a small function ...
 
 What do you suggests ?
