Here's a patch for Tux of Math Command, and three supporting files.  If I 
created the patch correctly, then "patch -p0 < answer.diff" in a directory 
checked out from CVS earlier today should apply the changes.  Copy the two 
pngs into data/images/comets and the wav into data/sounds, and you should be 
good to go.
  The most important change is that when a comet hits a city, the formula 
displayed on the comet is replaced by the correct answer, so that the 
students can learn from their mistakes.
   Other changes:
- At slow speeds the game tended to draw comets on top of each other, which 
really frustrated my son.  I put in some code to spread them out a bit.
- Comets sizzle when hit.
- Since the formula on a comet never changes, I calculated the string to 
display once, and took the sprintf call out of the inner loop.
- Tidier linkage.  You had static definitions in .h files, so every .c file 
that included the .h file had a separate copy of the defined items.  I made 
them shared extern items, or static items inside .c files, as seemed 
appropriate.
- Makefile: I compile with -g and strip during installation, so I can use a 
debugger during development.
