[Qt-interest] how to hide the taskbar/dock icon?

[Gabriele Kahlout]

That has not worked out for me.
The code is hosted here
http://screenshoter.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/screenshoter/.

The application is intended to be a background one which is activated
by key sequence.
So when launched it does nothing but listen to specified key
sequences. A window is created later. But even creating a window and
not showing it won't work.

Starting it as a QCoreApplication will not display the taskbar but
will not even listen to the hot keys.
So, what should I do in this case?
