[plt-scheme] Mred - How to know which canvas is active?

I executed the program, and, in DrScheme's top level, tried both of
your commands. Problem is that i don't know if they do work because
i'm not able to know what they are giving back: how to print the
content of the struct returned?

#<struct:object:frame%>

#2(struct:object:frame% ...)

#f
It seems there is no accessor to print the value? (wired)
(print, write, or display don't do it neither)
Plus: struct documentation says: "When structure printing is
disabled, or when no part of the structure is accessible to the
current inspector, a structure is printed as #<struct:s>."

Purpose of my application is to work on any platform (windows, mac,
linux), so i'm going to read more about this solution.
