+    Design pattern - System Tray and GUI Window
+    
+    This design pattern will show you how to run a system tray icon and a GUI window
+    simultaneously.  BOTH the system tray and the window will be active at the same time.
+    
+    The "close window" action is similar to what most windows programs do that have a tray icon.
+    When you close the window with an "X", it closes the GUI window and shows a message in the
+    tray that the window has been "Minimized".
+    
+    To make things "easier", a new window is created each time rather than trying to hide and unhide.
+    On some systems, the hide method doesn't work very well (Raspberry Pi for example).
+    
+    You can "Minimize" to the tray in 3 ways in this program:
+        1. Click the "X" on the window
+        2. Click the button "Minimize to tray"
+        3. Right click tray icon and choose "Hide"
+        
+    To exit the entire program, you will need to do this from the System tray by choosing "Exit"
