The emulation in a terminal emulator is pure graphics. That’s why it is a terminal emulator for a graphical environment. The logic behind it are just flags to serve xdraws(). You will have to rewrite everything in a new environment, especially because of the event infrastructure in X11. There is not much to modularize here. Having one server for many windows is what was first planned as an urxvt‐like daemon feature. The complexity in code for this does not re‐ ally give much gain. So it was dropped.
