You need more than a simple program for a proof-of-concept.
You need a program with menu, toolbar, scrollbars and some
"drawing area" inside.

The kdesdk has an example, khexdit, which might be good for you.
It is 20KB C++, and has everything mentioned above. Just leave
out its fancier things like net transparency and online help for
a start.
