Anyone know how to do this in Objective-C? I have searched through NSApplication and NSWorkspace to no avail. Thanks!

I read that, but it seemed as if it was there to do anything but bounce the dock. I will still check it out tonight...

According to some rumors, that behaviour will change in Mac OS X Tiger, that's probably why they don't mention the dock in the documentation for that method.
