-Windows 32 Notes
-================
-
-The "freeglut" library installation package comes with MSVC 6.0 workspace and
-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.
-
-
-Building the Libraries with MSVC
-================================
-
-To build the "freeglut" libraries, open MSVC and load the "freeglut" workspace.
-This will load the two projects.  Selecting "Build" - "Batch Build" from the
-menu will build both the debug and the release versions of both libraries.
-
-The libraries will be found in the following places and will have the
-following names:
-- DLL, debug version: freeglut\freeglut\Debug\freeglut.lib
-- DLL, release version: freeglut\freeglut\Release\freeglut.lib
-- Static, debug version: freeglut\freeglut\DebugStatic\freeglut_static.lib
-- Static, release version: freeglut\freeglut\ReleaseStatic\freeglut_static.lib
-
-Unlike the *nix release, the library names are NOT automatic replacements for
-the GLUT library names.  You may rename them manually if you wish, but this is
-not necessary as the header file includes a pragma telling the compiler which
-library file to look for.
-
+NB
+==================================
+For ancient 16bit compatibility, windef.h (included through windows.h in
+freeglut_std.h) defines near and far. Its best to avoid using variables
+with these names in your own program.
 
 Installing the Libraries with MSVC

     - The library file "freeglut.lib" or "freeglut_static.lib" (from the
       corresponding debug or release directory) needs to be copied into the

       Note that there is no "GL" subdirectory here.  This directory should
       already have the files "opengl32.lib", "glu32.lib", and "glaux.lib".
     - If you are using the DLL version of "freeglut", the file "freeglut.dll"
