oke,

I found I think the answer.
I still have to write testcases but it's looking good.

Here is what I have :

(define cursor (rectangle 2 20 "solid" "red"))
(define textcolor "black")
(define textfont 11)

(define-struct editor (pre post))
; Editor = (make-editor String String)
; interp. (make-editor s t) means the text in the editor is
; (string-append s t) with the cursor displayed between s and t
; make-editor String String -> Editor
; editor-pre Editor -> String
; editor-post Editor -> String
; editor? Editor Any -> Boolean

; make-struct
(define verwerker (make-editor "aaa" "bbbb"))


; Editor -> Image
; Function which displays the struct on the screen into a image.
(define (render verwerker)
;; verwerker  editor
;; (editor-pre verwerker) string
;; (editor-post verwerker) string
;; cursor  fixed image
;; workspace fixed image
(place-image (beside (text(editor-pre verwerker) textfont textcolor) 
cursor (text(editor-post verwerker) textfont textcolor ))25 10 workspace ))
