Hi John,
This is great! Thanks a lot for your help. Incidentally, with all the flurry
of GLX<InsertYourPlatformHere> I guess I should really build some sort of
OpenGL plugin which simply links against the host libs. Bert, John, Is this a
problem on any of your platforms (e.g., is there a need to link against GL at
runtime rather than compile time)?!
Cheers,
- Andreas
