fd1b4dd468 Now breaks the line after the last whitespace, not the first.
I cleaned things up a bit, and I've made logging optional since I don't yet
trust the code fully.

A Wylie underscore at the end of a line is worth looking into further, at the
very least.

f26dd53da3 Changed the build so that Savant and QuillDriver's builds include
Smart*Player.java, which are accessed via reflection.  Cleaned up the
code a bit so that it would compile in so doing.

Changed the 'options.txt' preferences file to reflect the new method
of selecting media players.

08e4e2fc57 Added a flexible mechanism for persistent boolean-, integer-, and
string-valued preferences built atop java.util.Properties.

How it works: the jvm is asked first, and then the user's prefs file, if it exists,
then the system-wide prefs file, and then the built-in preferences.  Finally, for
robustness, a default may be optionally hard-coded in the source.

I made several things configurable, too:

the default Tibetan keyboard
the default font sizes and faces
whether you want developer-only features enabled
Savant's file extension (.savant)
etc.

The only known problems are the following:

The default location for the user's preferences file is windows-specific,
arbitrary, and not in the user documentation.  Likewise for the location of the
system-wide preferences file.  You can change them using 'java -D', though.

There is no "Save preferences" option yet, and closing the program does
not save preferences either.
