Does anyone know if it is possible (and if it is, how?) to put a Shoes application in MS Windows system tray?

Something like using minimize to put the window to system tray.

A far as I know you'll have to mess with win32api (function Shell_NotifyIcon in shell32). This discussion might get you started.
