Don't see how, if you have written functions like:
MouseClicked(int xpixel , int ypixel)
RedrawScreen()
etc, you just need to call them in response to the correct window manager 
messages.  Of course if you write the whole game as just a big long chunk of 
code you are going to find it hard to fit it in with a window manager.

BTW why don't you just do a text based version?
