Description

Mesa-glut contains the GLUT (OpenGL Utility Toolkit) library.
GLUT is a window system independent toolkit for writing small to
medium-sized OpenGL programs. OpenGL is a Silicon Graphics, Inc.,
graphics utilities toolkit. Since Mesa (a graphics library) is very
similar to OpenGL, OpenGL programs will work with Mesa.
GLUT is well-suited for learning OpenGL and developing simple OpenGL
applications, but it is not a full-featured toolkit. If you're
interested in creating large applications requiring sophisticated user
interfaces, you're probably better off using a native window system
toolkit like Motif. If you're interested in learning how to create OpenGL
applications or in creating small and simple OpenGL applications, you
should install mesa-glut along with mesa and possibly mesa-demos. You
may also want to install mesa-devel, which provides a development
environment for Mesa programming.
