   typedef struct st_LWSurfEdFuncs {
      void (*open)       (int);
      void (*close)      (void);
      int  (*isOpen)     (void);
      void (*setSurface) (LWSurfaceID);
      void (*setPosition)(int x, int y);
      void (*getPosition)(int *x, int *y, int *w, int *h);
   } LWSurfEdFuncs;

open( int ): Open the surface editor window.
close(): Close the window.
state = isOpen(): True if the editor window is open.
setSurface( surfid ): Set the current surface in the editor.
setPosition( x, y ): Set the window's position relative to the upper left corner of the screen.
