[X2Go-User] [x2go][pyhoca-cli] - Reparent windows using xembed

[Antenore Gatta]

Hi all,

I'm one of the main Remmina contributors, a C/GTK application used to
connect to a remote server using different protocols.

We have an NX plugin, that I'm even not sure is working, so I decided
to write an X2Go plugin.

So far so good, I was able to implement a kind of wrapper around
pyhoca-cli, but as I'm far to be a good developer, I'm having some hard
time to try to embed/reparent, the X2Go windows inside our GTK
container.

This is usually achieved implementing the Xembed protocol, on both side
and for what I can see/understand, X2Go, or at least Pyhoca-cli,
doesn't.

Am I wrong? In the case would it be possible to implement or are you
aware of any other approach of doing it?

Some references:

The "xterm -into windowID" it's just to showcase the fact that the
reparenting works.

Thanks a lot for your precious work and support!

Best regards
Antenore
