     Sorry for the delay, here is the code I prepared (it contains all
     the functions needed to run OpenGL on a GTK drawing area):

     or:
     http://www.gamgi.ist.utl.pt/gtk_opengl.tar.gz

     The code is in a single file, gtk_opengl.c, very easy to read, I think.
     It has 189 lines of C code only, a good part of it are comments
     and space lines...

I haven't got around to trying it yet, but I've had a good look at it. Seems to be simple
and compact, which is good.

Just a bit concerned about the license (or lack of).  The README says "released in the public domain".
I don't know in which country you live, but many jurists are of the opinion that this is impossible in 
many legal systems.   It could cause problems in the future.

If you want to waive all rights, I suggest that you consider the http://creativecommons.org/choose/zero/ 
license instead, which is designed for such things.

Also, its best to put a license notice (or at least a statement of intention to waive all rights)
in each of the source files, in case they become separated from the README.


Thanks for the code.  I'll try soon.
