I'd like to formulate an image display routine as a library
and provide calls to display an image in a window, resize it,
change the image, and draw on the image.  The users do not want
to know what InterViews is, they just want me to provide calls
like    display_array(*red, *green, *blue, width, height); in 
a library that they can link their applications with.  In other
words, they will have a main, and I must somehow run the window
loop without them being aware of it. 

Is it possible to do this in InterViews, or must I write a 
separate program that gets it's input from button and mouse
events, or listens to a pipe or rpc?
