Graphics Library Utility Toolkit (GLUT)

The OpenGL Utility Toolkit (GLUT) is a programming interface with ANSI C and FORTRAN bindings for writing window system independent OpenGL programs. The toolkit supports:

• Multiple windows for OpenGL rendering
• Callback driven event processing
• An 'idle' routine and timers
• A simple, cascading pop-up menu facility
• Utility routines to generate various solid and wire frame objects
• Support for bitmap and stroke fonts
• Miscellaneous window management functions
