Does anybody have any configuration that would allow for running X11 in a window-as-display? That is, a single Mac window would display an X11 session: window manager, multiple windows, etc.

Ie: X11.app can do windowed mode where each X-window is a Mac-window, or root where the entire display is owned by X11 (full screen), but cannot have root-in-a-window, where a single MacOS window would contain an X11 session (window manager, windows, etc).

Alternately, I could start a VNC server, and connect to localhost via a VNC client.

I have tried:

- X11.app does not have window-as-screen mode
- Xnest does not appear to have a port (ie: tell X11.app to run Xnest and let it then run a window manager)
- Couldn't find any Xnest-equivalent ports
- packages category:vnc:
  - tightvnc fails to build
  - tigervnc is viewer only
  - vnc fails to build
  - cotvnc is viewer
  - vineserver appears to be a vnc server to allow access to the Mac
