- I don't know about parenting to another processes window (my guess is
- you've got to modify emacs to get the x-window's id, and if you can do
- that you might as well add the whole thing to emacs instead :)

- But, I think the point is probably moot, since their is a lucid-emacs
- (which has x-windows support), tkemacs, and (of course) mxedit.

- PS. There is something called siod (an embedded scheme/lisp based on
- some of the same design goals as TCL). It would be interesting to
- throw together a emacs-a-like using mxedit.
