Currently the function does nothing (and is disabled) in every game
except Solo, but it's a start.

definitions, so let's move it so that it's just next to the
functions it relates to. This also opens the way for me to add more
booleans next to other functions without getting confused as to
which is which.

finally (*blush*) turn the orientability triangles back the right
way up.

puzzle, to make it construcct puzzle IDs and output them on stdout.
Also checked in print.py, a script which reads puzzle IDs on stdin
and produces PostScript output. With these, you can generate pages
of Pattern, Rectangles and Solo puzzles to take on trains with you.

builds better:
- the GTK makefile now defines $(GTK_CONFIG) which you can
override, so you can build for GTK 2 with no makefile-editing
simply by running `make GTK_CONFIG="pkg_config gtk+-2.0"'
- we use Pango to find appropriate fonts, which means the text in
the puzzles actually (gasp!) adapts its size to the
circumstances. Unfortunately, I've been unable to do this
portably without depending on _either_ a Pango function that
isn't present in older versions _or_ the underlying window system
being X11; I'd appreciate someone doing better.

enable configurable puzzle difficulty. I'm only generating grids up
to Times level (complicated non-recursive analysis but guessing
never required); I wouldn't object to providing a Telegraph
difficulty level (guessing required) but it turns out to be very
hard indeed to generate at random. I might still add it later
(probably under the name `Unreasonable' :-) if I can think of an
efficient way to find them.

- added a compilation option -DSTANDALONE_SOLVER which makes both
of Solo's internal solvers accessible from the command line.
- fix a bug in nsolve turned up by testing in this mode: it failed
to iterate at all! Oddly, this massive improvement to the
effectiveness of nsolve hasn't emptied the generated grids by
very much.
- add an extra mode of reasoning to my to-do list (which is the
dual of one already there, so I'm kicking myself).

the default symmetry from order-4 down to order-2, which seems to
mitigate the excessively-full-grid problem by permitting more
freedom to remove stuff.

clipping policy work properly. I haven't proved why it didn't work
the previous way, but I have a good guess: I think that clip regions
are handled by reference. So I saved the old clip region out of the
DC, then did an IntersectClipRect, and then selected the old clip
region back in again - but the old clip region had never been
_de_-selected, because IntersectClipRect didn't change which object
was selected but rather it modified-in-place the one that already
was selected. So my attempt to restore the old clip region did
nothing whatsoever, and thus clipping to two different rectangles
during the same draw sequence failed. Now I'm completely destroying
the clip region during unclip(), which seems to work better.

enough to make this feasible). It's a little bit too easy otherwise!

terribly silly when containing an entire Rectangles or Pattern game

back ends can be assured of always receiving them in a sensible
sequence (button-down, followed by zero or more drags, followed by
button-up, and never changing button in the middle of such a
sequence). I have a suspicion this issue was the cause of the
mysterious Pattern grid updates seen by Dan during testing last
night.

tree to fail mkfiles.pl. Worse still, the GTK Makefile wasn't
included, so people _needed_ to run mkfiles.pl! Both now fixed, I
think.

platform-dependent code in puzzles.h (ick), which in turn depended
on the magic symbol MAC_OS_X being defined by mkfiles.pl itself
(yuck). Suddenly realised I can do much better simply by putting it
in an OS X makefile extras section in Recipe, and removing both
previous hacks. Much nicer.

Everything else was automatic. Not bad!

was a bug in my new OS X port! Turns out it's an entirely platform-
