Right, which is why I'm trying to avoid reinventing it. Writing a new HTML editor is not even a consideration. I'm looking at the effort to integrate the Mozilla editor component, and wondering if there are other components that could be used instead in a Gtk2Hs application.
A not-so-well-known feature of X11 is reparenting of windows. You should be able to take any X11 app and have it display in a window of your choice inside your app. So pick an HTML editor and integrate it into your app that way.
Ah yes, that's a good point. Gtk+ and Gtk2hs support this X11 feature: http://haskell.org/gtk2hs/docs/current/Graphics-UI-Gtk-Embedding-Plug.html http://haskell.org/gtk2hs/docs/current/Graphics-UI-Gtk-Embedding-Socket.html Duncan
