Gtk and Qt provide functions to set a system tray icon, FLTK doesn't.
There's a specification for X11 systems: https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/systemtray-spec/
An FLTK wrapper function for this would also be useful as you don't need to write different code for Windows, Mac and X11.

I have attached an example how to add a tray entry.

System tray icons using the legacy X11 systemtray-spec don't seem to be supported by most modern DEs. You're supposed to use libappindicator or similar libraries.
