I added GLUI 2.1 beta for Sun and Linux to the glut and mesa lockers
on Athena. GLUI is a window-system independent C++ interface library
that interfaces to GLUT and which provides controls such as buttons,
checkboxes, radio buttons, spinners and listboxes to OpenGL/GLUT
applications.
GLUT is a programming interface that allows writing window-system independent
OpenGL 3d applications in C and FORTRAN.
The setup is somewhat convoluted and a bit different for Sun and
Linux as these use different versions of glut and OpenGL/Mesa.
Detailed usage notes, including instructions for building demos are in
file /mit/glut/glui-2.1b/README.to-run in the glut locker.
There is also a user manual, file /mit/glut/glui-2.1b/glui_manual.pdf.
