I'd look into to porting NEdit to wxWidgets, sitting on top of Motif
(http://www.wxwidgets.org/docs/faqmot.htm). That's what you're thinking of.
First just link it it in and little else. Then, slowly remove all the
direct X and Motif dependencies until it's purely wxWidgets. Once it's
done, rehost it to gtk or OSX whatever.
Pure GTK in C is fairly icky as Motif is in C, just better, but still
icky. It's still trying to model an object-oriented concept onto a
non-OO language. Yuck.
