I guess, you mean gnome panel applets. This requires pascal bindings for the
libpanel lib, some modifications to the gnome interface (to use the
different message loop and few other things) and a new TCustomGnomePanel
form.

You can start with http://cactus.rulez.org/doc/articles/panelapplet/ and
write the libpanel bindings with h2pas. Then I will help you writing the
TCustomGnomePanel.
