This is probably a dumb question, but here goes:

I have a number of X11 based applications that I would like to run on
a '386 under MS-DOS.  I don't want concurrent execution, just one
application at a time.  So, I thought that an Xlib implementation with
a "server" which was linked into the application and which contained
enough window manager to "manage" a single client would do the job.

Does such a beast exist?  Would anyone else be interested in one if I
wrote it?

Please respond directly, and if there is enough interest, I will
sumarize.

Marty
