5 This is the freeglut package.
7 Freeglut, the Free openGL Utility Toolkit, is meant to be a free alter-
8 native to Mark Kilgard's GLUT library. It is distributed under an X-Consor-
9 tium style license (see COPYING for details), to offer you a chance to use
10 and/or modify the source.
12 It makes use of OpenGL, GLU, and pthreads-win32 libraries. The library does
13 not make use of any GLUT code and is not 100% compatible. Code recompilation
14 and/or slight modifications might be required for your applications to work
21 Both X11 and Win32 ports are in an advanced alpha stage, which means that
22 they provide limited functionality of GLUT API 3. A somewhat more
23 limited port (mostly due to limits of the OS) to Andriod is now also
30 See README.cmake as a starting point, as well as the other README
31 files for further info.
37 Bug and missing features patches are certainly welcome. Just as comments
38 and FREEGLUT API propositions are.
40 Just please to make the fixes look visually just as the rest of the code
41 does (tabs converted 4 white spaces). Comments are really welcome, as I
42 believe it would be nice for people fresh new to OpenGL see how the things

47 ==================================
49 Freeglut project has moved to the SourceForge:
50 http://freeglut.sourceforge.net
56 Hope you find my work somehow useful.
57 Pawel W. Olszta, <olszta@sourceforge.net>
63 In late December 2000, Pawel decided that he no longer
64 wished to maintain freeglut because he has moved out of
65 the graphics field. I volunteered to take over from him
66 and have been running the project since Jan 13th 2001.
68 I'm also the author and maintainer of the PLIB library suite
69 and 'freeglut' really fits in well with that work.
71 I just hope I can live up to Pawel's high standards. Pawel
72 remains on the active developers list.
