ThudBoard issues

Now that ThudBoard is nearing completion, I have crafted a couple of dedicated pages for ThudBoard information.
So, the following information will gradually become obsolete:
Latest release: v-0.9.4
Open issues
- maximize-option? (ui centered, rocks tiled)
- thud.ico under Python 2.2.x raises exception?
- Linux-version still needs enhancement
- keyboard-bindings
Closed issues in v-0.9.4
- 'locked move' displays twice on paste-click (not on ctrl-v)
- The Help-screens have been converted into html and will be shown in the users browser of choice. Also added a contents page.
Closed issues in v-0.9.3
- Holding the mouse-button down on the scroll-arrows should do continuous scrolling
- copy&paste now accepts strings like A9-B10 (without the leading 'd' or 'T'), provided that A9 does actually contain a piece.
- added copy&paste icons to the battle-line (paste icon can indicate: no thudmove on clipboard, no pasteable thudmove (from current position) and pasteable thudmove)
- hover highlight for menus and submenus
- Upon loading a battle the moves-list will try to put the battle-line in the middle so some history is visible too
Closed issues in v-0.9.2
- Added copy/paste (ctrl-c and ctrl-v) support for moves
- Display the battle-name in the titlebar
- Design-proposal for 0.9.2 (this has been altered a bit on implementation :-)
- Make sure it fits into an 800x600 desktop
- Lock-icon should only be on the first line of a move
- Auto-add the .thud extension if it isn't typed
- Rename the File-submenu Save into 'Save as' and the Save position into 'Save snapshot'
- Remove the annoying 'illegal move' msgbox
- Put a mini-howto in the scroll-list on startup explaining simple board-moves
- Keep score (either of captured pieces or of pieces left on the board), and find some place to display this nicely
- Find a better way to overlay the coordinates grid (perhaps with a different background image and turning on the highlighter in this mode)
- make http://www.thudgame.com clickable
- Submenu click-area's are a bit off
- Submenu doesn't close sometimes
- Prevent submenu clicks from falling through to activate underlying items (like 'save')
- highlighter should be off when the mouse is not on the canvas (it sticks when you move off the side...)
Closed issues in v-0.9.1a
- ThudBoard shortcuts on Desktop and Start Menu should now work correctly
- Packaged thud.ico in the Windows installer and Thud.exe
Thanks to John Pagan for pointing out a lot of these things!
