_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     Create a new surface that is as compatible as possible with an
     existing surface. The new surface will use the same backend as
     'other' unless that is not possible for some reason.

_U_s_a_g_e:

     cairoSurfaceCreateSimilar(other, content, width, height)

_A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s:

 'other': ['CairoSurface']  an existing surface used to select the
          backend of the new surface

'content': ['CairoContent']  the content for the new surface

 'width': [integer]  width of the new surface, (in device-space units)

'height': [integer]  height of the new surface (in device-space units)

_V_a_l_u_e:

     ['CairoSurface']  a pointer to the newly allocated surface. The
     caller owns the surface and should call cairo_surface_destroy when
     done with it.

     This function always returns a valid pointer, but it will return a
     pointer to a "nil" surface if 'other' is already in an error state
     or any other error occurs.
