freeglut is a completely OpenSourced alternative to the OpenGL Utility
|
|
Toolkit (GLUT) library. GLUT was originally written by Mark Kilgard to
|
|
support the sample programs in the second edition OpenGL 'RedBook'.
|
|
Since then, GLUT has been used in a wide variety of practical applications
|
|
because it is simple, universally available and highly portable.
|
|
|
|
GLUT (and hence freeglut) allows the user to create and manage windows
|
|
containing OpenGL contexts on a wide range of platforms and also read the
|
|
mouse, keyboard and joystick functions.
|
|
|
|
freeglut is released under the X-Consortium license.
