That is exaclty the case. When cube3d is started, it creates six _shared_ memory areas with the size of the resolution of each cube side. Then you start the GGI applications and redirect their output to one of the 6th shared memory areas. cube3d does nothing, but rendering the output of the programs as a texture. At the beginning the cube has the input control, so you can move it around using the cursor keys. The numbers '0'-'5' on the keyboard selects a certain cube side. '#' redirects the input to the application running on the selected cube side. Another '#' returns the input back to the cube. Anything else you want to know?
