I had already done that for the 2.2.1 version, I can bring it up to the cvs 
version, but first...

Its also worth noting that the KDE version of Mahjongg [which looks nowhere 
near as polished, IMHO :)] already has a layout editor.  The layouts are 
saved in plain text files.  The format is OK, though I would prefer to simply 
fwrite/fread the defining array for simplicity.  How important to people is 
compatibility with the KDE version?
We could:
- just use the KDE file format (but the first line is 
kmahjongg-layout-something, and changing that breaks the KDE Mahjongg's 
layout opening.)
-import/export the KDE version, and have our own file format (but that's extra 
buttons)
-use an incompatible format (I don't like this as much).

Thoughts?
