I'm porting an application from Motif to the Open Look Intrinsics.  
In the Motif program, I used a drawingArea widget to give me input 
and expose events.  However, under Open Look, I do not see an
analogous widget.  There seems to be no widget whose purpose is to
give an input/drawing basis.

One thought I had to this problem, is to use the Text widget and not
use any of its drawing/text capabilities, but rather, take its
input/expose call backs and draw into the widget as an X window
(which is what I do with the drawingArea widget under Motif, anyway).

Any help with this problem would be greatly appreciated.
