Greetings, Pythoneers--

I would like your comments on a project of mine.

What I've done so far is a game -- a Tkinter-based solitaire game
called Pegboard which more-or-less works and can be enjoyed as is, if
you're into that sort of thing.

But what I'm really after is to use the game as the basis of a Tkinter 
tutorial. I don't mean for it to be all-inclusive or to replace
Frederik Lundh's excellent work, but it does cover some points that
Lundh doesn't cover in any depth (or at least, hadn't gotten around to 
last I knew), particularly the Canvas and Menu widgets.

Your comments on the code itself are most welcome, but I'm especially
interested in your comments on my comments -- and docstrings -- and
places that should have comments/docstrings but don't. That will help
me understand what to write when I begin the actual tutorial.

Pegboard is available (in .tar.gz and .zip packages) from:

By the way, you need to have the tkFont module.

I look forward to hearing from you!
