History
-------
	I enjoy hangman, and after an OS update, I found I'd lost my (crappy)
text version of the game. 

	At Sunsite/Metalab/Ibiblio, I found Andreas's cute program. It wasn't
very usable. Highlights include: Any switch of focus broke the algorithm, Every
loop of the program reloaded the dictionary !!, and the letter entry widget was
way small to be helpful.

	( If you're reading this A., stop here, because your programming was
pretty naive. Mega Highlights include: 11 comments for global variables
- "# Globale Variablen", passing global variables aimlessly between
procedures, heaps of redundant processing, and an algorithm from a place
warmer than Austria.  Still It is your program, without which I'd be playing
the BSD console version. Thank-you. )

Status
------
	Tkhangman has been totally recoded, has new pictures and words, and is
is starting to feel quite finished.  :-) 
( Andreas' original program is included (in "extras") and can still be run.)

	Version 2.5 is the first I've done in ages. I've made the entry widget
quite robust, and given the look-n-feel an overhaul.

Wordlist
--------
	I've compiled an interesting/tricky wordlist. It has some Australian
animal and plant names, as well as some scientific words. 

Thanks
------
	Humble thanks to Ibiblio archives, the author(s) of Tcl/Tk (awesome),
real programmers writing code for linux/gnu and the companies that support them.

Changes
-------
1/4/02	Remove LittlePicture widget, to make room for ...
	Align Entry and Points widgets vertically, not side by side
	Editing by the colour police
	Only initialize dictionary ('wordslist') once
	Added 'gameslost' and 'gameswon' variables
	Update widget before loading dictionary
	Fixed problem with focus (alt+cntl+'+|-', and TAB broke the algorithm)
7/4/02	Stopped letters pressed after Gameover running into next game.
	Fixed broken 'gameslost' algorithm.
13/4/02 Write small documentation.
	----> 2.0 
2/6/02	Renamed procedures and variables and gave them better structure
	Added a check for already keyed letters
	Added a check for non-alphabetic characters
3/6/02	Don't load whole dictionary, but do a random file-seek and grab a word.
	Don't need to 'update' widget anymore
	Declare "/dev/kmem" upfront for ease of porting
4/6/02	Some string handling optimizations in InitWord
	... adding these features, the speed loss was offset by
	optimizing the original code. Overall , seems faster ;-)
	Program is approaching a real version of around 0.9.
	----> 2.2 
7/11/02 Drew some new gifs in my long lunch break.
8/11/02	Minor algorithm changes:
	  'Start' button at start
	  Change method of Image redraw
9/11/02 Renamed most of the widgets to something meaningful &
	Tidied up the !whole! program.
	Some elementary error checking on startup
	Slightly better installation notes
	New word list. ;->.
	----> 2.4 
28/11/02Fixed padding so as picture has no spacing in a 1024x768 screen
	Hopefully is ok at higher resolutions too.
	----> 2.4.1
22/12/02Rewrote random number generator
6/12/03 Gave the buttons a "groove" relief and changed the colours.
	Don't draw a border around the entry widget (upon focus).
	<FocusIn> the entry widget no longer highlights all the letters.
	Moving the cursor around (in the entry widget) no longer messes up.
	Changed the title label from text to a picture.
	----> 2.5
9/12/03 a little code re-write
24/4/04 finally touched up the title gif
	----> 2.5.1
8/11/07 A little hack to fix Mac button colour issue
	----> 2.5.1a
Todo
----
	It's starting to look fairly finished... ~may~ think about:
	Better pictures-  Pictures of a cat instead of a person.
	A widget to select different dictionaries.
	- (But i don't think so. It's a nice size now)

Caveats
-------
	Lower case input only.
	Extra big words don't fit.
	Capitalized words in the dictionary are made lower case.

Bugs
----
	Typing fast can cause letters to be skipped (on my k6-380).
	Please report any bugs to the author.
