I see. OK. Actually I wanted to use SDL, but the problem
with SDL (and apparently also PW) is that they allow only
a single OpenGL window per process.
I'm not writing a game per se; more of a game-flavored
peer-to-peer 3D browser of sorts, which will need multiple
windows open.
Thanks for the pointer to PLIB, though - that looks quite
nice!
Hmm... Looking at the web page for PLIB::PUI, I see it
allows PU_USE_FLTK .... ? It would seem FLTK is likely
to allow opening multiple OpenGL windows; however I can't
guess yet how it might behave with regard to modifier
keys. <grin>
Oh well, I'll keep looking. Thanks for the info.
Regards,
Bill
