Summary : Development libraries, includes and man pages for freeglut (GLUT Library)
Description :
This package contains all necessary include files and libraries needed
to compile and link applications for the freeglut library.
In addition, it also includes manual pages which describe all functions
provided by the freeglut library.
Freeglut is a completely open source 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 freeglut) allow the user to create and manage windows
containing OpenGL contexts and also read the mouse, keyboard, and
joystick functions on a wide range of platforms.
