The subversion repository is https://svn.tux4kids.net/tuxmath. The tux4.kids
site also has a wiki for tuxmath at http://trac.tux4kids.net/tuxmath. All it
has is a stub paragraph that I added this morning, including my email address
for any questions. This wiki is probably where I should put up information
about the status of and plans for the project. I am leaving on vacation
today for a week.

As far as I know, I am the only one committing changes to the subversion
repository. There are two main issues with which I am currently grappling:
1. I would like to have the program be able to read and write the settings to
a config file. I think the writing part should be pretty simple using
fprintf(). It seems the reading part will involve more work. As I
understand it, the process will be:
- read the config file into a buffer.
- use lex (actually flex) to convert it to a series of tokens
- use yacc (bison) to update the settings structs accordingly.
I am starting from scratch as far as learning the above is concerned - any
advice would be greatly appreciated.
2. I would like to be able to build Tuxmath for Windows due to requests from
friends and family. I am at the stage of installing cygwin and SDL libs on
the one remaining Windows partition in my household.
Hope this helps,
