Updated graphics library

Hello all, For those of you who use my graphics.py library for teaching, I wanted to let you know that I've just released an update to version 3.2. This version has two important improvements over the last release (3.0): 1. Significantly improved performance of communication with the Tk thread. 2. A new Pixmap object that can be used for simple image manipulation programs. Pixmap is a wrapper around the TK photoimage class and allows creation and manipulation of gif, ppm, and bitmap graphics files through setPixel and getPixel methods. As usual, the package and updated documentation are available at: http://mcsp.wartburg.edu/zelle/python The threading updates have been fairly well tested at this point, as we've used them already in a CS1 class. The Pixmap object is not as extensively tested, but it's so simple that I feel it is ready for release. Id' be happy to hear any feedback (good or bad). --John -- John M.
