openglut for windows 98

[Hurle]

I just downloaded opengl for windows 98. It includes openglaux instead of openglut.

Can I get the openglut verson of the include files for my Windows 98, and how?

It is called "glut" and "glaux", glut is a replacement for glaux which is no longer supported.

You can get the newest glut for windows from Nate Robins web site also tutors on how to use it: http://www.xmission.com/~nate/opengl.html

Thanks, I did that. It nearly runs. I am missing Windows.h according to the compiler. Where do I get a copy of this file?

If it is a windows compiler, you should have it.

did you #include<windows.h> in your program?

Yep! I included windows.h -- the wrong one. I discovered you cannot run opengl under DOS, unless there is some gl stuff out there I cannot find.
I broke down and got visual c++. OpenGL works fine now. Thanks for your inputs everyone.
