+project files.  The workspace "freeglut.dsw" has two projects:
+"freeglut.dsp", which creates a DLL file, and "freeglut_static.dsp", which
+creates a static library.

 
 

+The "freeglut" library also comes with an Open Watcom compiler project file
+"freeglut.wpj" and two target files "freeglut.tgt" and "freeglut_static.tgt".
+The two target files build DLL and static libraries.  The Open Watcom also
+includes "freeglut.rc", which is a resource compiler script to add a "Version"
+tab to the DLL property sheet.

+    - The header files "freeglut.h", "freeglut_ext.h", "freeglut_std.h", and
+      "glut.h" (distributed in the directory "freeglut\freeglut\include\GL")
+         need to be copied to a "GL" directory under the Open Watcom 32-bit
+         Windows include directory.  This usually has a path similar to
+                         "C:\WATCOM\h\nt\GL"
+    - The library file "freeglut.lib" or "freeglut_static.lib" (from the
+      corresponding debug or release directory) needs to be copied into the
+         Open Watcom 32-bit Windows library directory.  This usually has a path
+         similar to
+                         "C:\WATCOM\lib386\nt"
+    - If you are using the DLL version of "freeglut", the file "freeglut.dll"
+      needs to be copied from the Debug or the Release directory into the
+      DLL directory.  This usually has a path similar to
+              "C:\Windows\System32"

+
+Building and Installing the Libraries with Cygwin
+=================================================
+
+To build "freeglut" under Cygwin, you have two choices:
+
+- You can build a normal Cygwin library, which depends on Cygwin's X11
+  libraries. To do this, you can just use the normal autotools incantation:
+      ./configure && make install
+
+- Alternatively, you can build a DLL which does not depend on X11 and links
+  against the opengl32 DLL. To do this, configure need a few more flags:
+      ./configure CPPFLAGS=-mno-cygwin LDFLAGS=-mno-cygwin --without-x && make install
+
+
+If you don't have MSVC, Open Watcom or Cygwin
