I can't really estimate, but consider these points: - that I've read the XEMBED specification, and it sounds really simple. If it's sounds simple for an X Windows/Motif/Gtk newbie (me), it's probably much more simple for an experienced programmer. I'm already working on experimental implementation of XEMBED for NEdit (implemented as part of NEdit), and it's not too complicated (My biggest problem is lack of Motif/Lesstif and the general complexity of Motif/Lesstif). - Also, the XEMBED spec says there that an implementation should take less than 1000 lines of code, and judging from the Gtk implementation of XEMBED, which can be found at gtksocket.c and gtkplug.c, it's more or less true. - Note that you can implement only 1/2 the functionality, i.e. make Motif/Lesstif embeddable into other toolkits, however Lesstif cannot serve as an embedder itself. This is more relevant for me as I am trying to embed Lesstif within a Gtk app. - Personally I think it's a good way to give more life to aging Motif/Lesstif applications, and just get more return of the investment already made in such applications, such as NEdit.
