I've added options to show equities and the best move.
This is not exactly the perfect implementation: the positions of the
strings are hardcoded (=trouble if you change font) and the best move
string does not always fit into the box. This will be very hard to fix
before we migrate to GTK+ 2.0 and are able to use Pango.
I've also changed the ply-buttons to radio-buttons.
