I'm not sure a textview would be viable, it might work for the

I don't know GTK at all, but my terminal thing's frontend just
needs keyboard and mouse input events and a canvas to draw onto
(including text string drawing functions).
So I'm guessing the TextView is actually overfeatured for what
I'd want.
Yep, that would be my expectation. I suspect you would just
inherit from GtkWidget and go from there.
