An editor<%> has a `get-view' method, which is probably the best thing
to use. If you don't yet have an editor, you can also use
`get-client-size' on the editor canvas, then subtract twice the result
of `horizontal-inset'.

Probably you can use `(lib "foreign.ss")' to get an Appearance Manager
drawing function. Use the `get-handle' method of a canvas to obtain the
canvas's ControlRef, and you should be able to get to a drawing context
from there.
