The Smart Q7 Tablet is using evilvte. As a low-power keyboardless tablet, this is quite similar to the DR1000S. It also gets better battery life, but with a smaller LCD screen.
Thanks for the links. The problems I had were with VTE, not (yet) with Sakura. VTE is a GTK-widget implementing a full functional terminal window, that comes with a simple application using the widget. So all VTE based terminal programs are also gtk-based. There seem to be a lot of terminal programs that are vte based, so porting vte seems to be 'the key'.

The dynamics of the code of VTE is my problem, if someone has a link to an easier implementation of 'terminal code' I could try to add a gtk-widget to it.
