It's only in Croquet. Part of the issue is that the OpenGL package
assumes that the compiler has been hacked to support positional
arguments, so that you can write code like...
ogl
glBegin(GLLineStrip);
glColor3f(1.0, 0.25, 1.0);
glVertex3f(1.0, 2.0, 10.0);
"..."
glEnd.
... which looks very familiar to a C programmer, which most graphics
programmers are. It will look even better if we can completely get
rid of underscore assignments so that "GLLineStrip" can become
"GL_LINE_STRIP".
Why not just use the Croquet image (if not Croquet itself)? It's
hardly distinguishable from a 3.8 image.
