Description-en: development files for the allegrogl library
This package contains the development headers for liballeggl.
.
AllegroGL is an Allegro add-on that allows you to use OpenGL alongside
Allegro -- you use OpenGL for your rendering to the screen, and Allegro for
miscellaneous tasks like gathering input, doing timers, getting cross-platform
portability, loading data, and drawing your textures. So this library fills
the same hole that things like glut do.
.
AllegroGL also automatically exposes most, if not all, OpenGL extensions
available to user programs. This means you no longer have to manually load
them; extension management is already done for you.
.
Allegro is a cross-platform library mainly aimed at video game and multimedia
programming. It handles common, low-level tasks such as creating windows,
accepting user input, loading data, drawing images, playing sounds, etc. and
generally abstracting away the underlying platform.
