I did the 8-queen program in STk (Scheme w/ Tk).  It had a
little chessboard and would show you the states as it searched. 
Alternatively, it would let you place some of the queens and
then search for a solution from there.  I should translate it
into Python.

It used continuations, but I think it was only to have a simple
way to stop it in mid-search.
