ANNOUNCE: GtkGLExt - OpenGL Extension to GTK

[Naofumi Yasufuku <naofumi yasufuku net>]

Hi gtk-list members,

It seems that GtkGLArea has currently no real maintainer, and it's
development have stopped.

Because I have started a small project "GtkGLExt" on 

  http://gtkglext.sourceforge.net/

This is an OpenGL extension to GTK 2.0 or later.

It currentry supports UNIX platforms, and tested on
Linux and IRIX with GTK+ 2.0.2.
Win32 support is not fully implemented yet.

This package is composed of GdkGLExt library and GtkGLExt library.

GdkGLExt library includes low-level OpenGL related objects,
GdkGLConfig, GdkGLContext, GdkGLDrawable, GdkGLWindow, and so on,
which has GLX 1.3 like interface.

GtkGLExt library includes high-level gtk_widget API extentions using
GdkGLExt, which extends *ANY* widget in GTK+ to an OpenGL-capable
widget.

The objects included in these libraries are implemented using C and
fully compliant with GLib's GObject and it's latest features.
It is one of advantages over GtkGLArea formerly used.

Please try it ;-)
