OpenEditor() opens files created by SaveEditor().
The position and size of the window are expressed as percentages of the Maptitude frame.
The attached menu and toolbar are automatically displayed whenever the editor is activated.
If the Grid option is omitted, the editor displays a grid if it was displaying a grid when it was saved.
If the Title option is omitted, the editor displays the title it had when saved.
If the menu, toolbar, activate macro, close macro, or highlight macro is not specified, OpenEditor() uses the default specified with SetDefaults(). If an editor specific default was not specified with SetDefaults() then OpenEditor() uses the generic default.
