Is it possible to open a shell in an X-window, or is the only way to accomplish
this to use xterm.  if xterms is the only way, how is it poosible to 
get the window id of the xterms, so it can be reparented.  Or better yet
how can you set the parent of xterm when it is being created.

thanks
david.

ps. No widgets or toolkit solutions please, as I am not using these.
