*heh* there's no guarantee a parent window's the main window (in other
words being more precise would have helped :)

in current system since only one PG_Application object can exist
theoretically you can just talk with it.
In the variation I've written you can also pull up the "default drawing
object".

PG_Draw::PG_DrawableSurface* app.GetScreen()
PG_Draw::PG_Draw::GetDefaultDrawable()

I believe in the ParaGUI/SDL system you're supposed to do
SDL_GetVideoSurface.  Ick.

G'day, eh? :)
