This is awesome! I like the idea of allowing the users to change these 
options at the command line.

Kewl, can't wait to see ;-)

Hey, I just noticed that sometimes if your system is running to slow (or CPU 
too slow, or X support lackluster, or whatever) that occassionally numbers 
you type will be dropped. For example, I was playing and the answer I needed 
to type was 12, but when I typed it (and I did type it ;-) only the "2" 
showed up.

I'll look into it if I can.... but if you get to it before me, feel free 
(probably some sort of SDL_Event polling problem ;-)
