Colored panes
Create a colored Canvas class. We have
provided a simple test that draws a 2x2 grid of colored canvases.

An OS/2 C version of this Magercise exists in this directory.
Note that the behavior of the C program may not be the same as the Magercise -- it is
presented here for comparision against the Java application you will write in this
Magercise. One of the major differences is that the C version does not support
layout managers, so resizing a window will not resize the contents of that window.
