Description-en: OpenGL Utility Toolkit development files
GLUT is a window system independent toolkit for writing OpenGL programs.
It implements a simple windowing API, which makes learning about and
exploring OpenGL programming very easy.
.
GLUT is designed for constructing small to medium sized OpenGL programs,
however it is not a full-featured toolkit, so large applications requiring
sophisticated user interfaces are better off using native window system
toolkits like GTK+ or Motif.
.
This package contains libraries, and headers suitable for software
development with GLUT.
