Perltray functionality for Linux

How can I get the functionality provided by Perltray for Windows in a Linux system?

Hi,

There is nothing directly comparable (code-wise) to Windows' system tray on Linux. I would check the developers documentation for the facility you're using on Linux and see how it's done in other languages. I believe there is a common subset of functionality supported by KDE, GNOME, and WindowMaker, but it has been a while since I looked at this. In any case, it's not something that the Linux version of the PDK provides, unfortunately.

Cheers,
