Carbon has an API that does this: TransitionWindow().  You can take a
look at its docs.  It supports the genie effect and others.  There is no
equivalent Cocoa API.

Matt Ball wrote some Cocoa code that uses this:

Alas, TransitionWindow() is deprecated and not available in 64.  So
really I don't recommend it.
