It may be that you already know this, but do you have seen the links about the ntxlib (and perhaps the libw11 project) on http://kde-cygwin.sourceforge.net/. The rxvt port is based on this stuff. There is a basic implementation of creating windows within a x client lib. Perhaps you can use it for your goal. Regards Ralf
