One option for you would be to complete the integration of fc-solve
( http://fc-solve.shlomifish.org/ ) into KPatience. See the relevant threads
at:

http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-games-devel&r=1&b=201101&w=2

Currently, KPat's Simple Simon solver is not functional, and often results in
endless loops, and fc-solve has a better Simple Simon solver (and also provides
many different algorithms for solving Freecell and similar games). Stephan Kulow
wanted to have an AbstractSolver class, instead of my patch (that can be found
in the BitBucket / Mercurial repository here:
https://bitbucket.org/shlomif/kdegames - it may no longer apply cleanly), and 
I agree that it would be a good idea.

Note that it doesn't involve a lot of GUI programming.

Regards,
