Where is the documentation (or examples) for programming the dock icon (like in mail)?

To make a Dock menu using IB, you create and instantiate an NSMenu object and connect the instantiated NSApplication object's "dockMenu" outlet to the menu object you created.

To add an icon to a Dock menu item, then you must use Carbon at this time. See <http://developer.apple.com/techpubs/macosx/Carbon/ HumanInterfaceToolbox/DockManager/customizing_docktile/tasks/ chapter_3_section_7.html>

To make changes to the application's Dock icon, AFAIK, you also have to use Carbon. See <http://developer.apple.com/techpubs/macosx/Carbon/ HumanInterfaceToolbox/DockManager/Dock_Manager/dockmngr_refchap/ function_group_3.html>
