Solitaire hacks

[Paul Flinders <paul dawa demon co uk>]

I've finally had time to start hacking a bit with Gnome. Since I needed
something easy to get used to gtk etc. I've hacked the solitaire game a
bit to:

  Use the freecell cards (just a set of pixmaps at the moment - not the
  code in gdk-card-image). This gives a much nicer display

  Add an options panel allowing the game and card backgrounds to be
  chosen.

  Add double-click and game-won logic to freecell (although I can't
  really take much credit for this bit as it's exactly the same as
  the Klondike code - just different slot numbers).

I'm somewhat reluctant to post the patches as they're just over 90k
compressed (most of this is changing the card xpms) - is there somewhere
else I can send them?

Also although you can change the card backgrounds currently the defaults
are used when the game next starts - is there a standard mechanism for
applications to store preferences permanently?
