Actually, I was interested in this ide myself at one point, and made
some inquiries.  One of the responses I got was from jsc, who had
implemented something like this in motif.  It's big and kind of slow,
but not altogether broken.  I've built it for the vax and decmips
right now, in case anyone wants to try it: 

add yandros;xzwgc&

A few things to note: 
	o your .zwgc.desc must put a ^L at the end of the message,
	  like ezwgc requires.  In
	  ~yandros/Projects/Misc/zwgc.desc.default.emacs is an
	  ezwgc-ified version of the deafult desc file.  (for Barr3y's
	  ezwgc) 
	o The App-defaults file must be added first, and this isn't
	  set up propoerly right now.  Do:

	  xrdb -merge /mit/yandros/Lib/App-defaults/Xzwgc

	  first, or the app will break.
	o When it first comes up, enlarge the window vertically,
	  because one of the geometries is off.
	o It doesn't fork itself into the background; the & is
	  necessary.
