Richard Suchenwirth 2003-07-01: Yet another educational Tcltoy to play with triangles. Corners and sides are named, and the length of each side and angle at each corner is displayed.

Draw a rectangle by clicking on three points.
Click on a corner to see its x/y coordinates.
Move selected corner with the cursor keys.
Click Clear to start a new triangle."
if 0 { Challenge: construct rectangular (one angle 90°), isosceles (two angles equal), equilateral (all angles 60°) triangles - the last I haven't managed yet, because of integer pixel resolution. Stronger challenge: fix ''assignNames'' so it always maintains counter-clock sense for A, B and C.
