My applet has *both* of the above. Firstly, the applet uses the
xembed protocol (via the tcl tktray package) to embed its toplevel X11
window into the tray (provided by trayer, although I don't see why it
shouldn't work with a full-on DE).
Secondly, the applet's tcl code makes a subwindow (using `frame
-container'), whose X11 window ID it passes to a separate program;
that separate program is given the window ID with -into and makes its
own window a child of the applet's.
So, overall, the subprocess's rendering is displayed in the tray; but
the tcl code handles user mouse input etc.
Regards,
Ian.
