OpenGL files

[Suresh Keswani <u0000732 at scorch dot tees dot ac dot uk>]

Dear Cygwin/X team,

I've just installed Cygwin & Cygwin/X for the first time. The installation 
worked smoothly and I can run remote X applications (including OpenGL 
applications successfully. Your X server makes me wonder why we have 
paid thousands for an incomplete product: Hummingbird's X server. Thanks 
a lot for such a wonderful product. I'll try and work on the powers that 
be to make a contribution to the Cygwin team.

I have a small question relating to developing OpenGL applications 
*locally*: I have installed the gcc/++ compiler suite, freeglut library 
files and the "OpenGL-related files" via the setup program. However, 
compiling OpenGL programs fails as the linker cannot find the GL 
libraries. Nor can I when I try looking for libgl.* and libglu.* in the 
usual locations. (libglut files are there).

My questions: - have these files changed names / locations in the Cygwin 
heirarchy? - or does "OpenGL-related" files refer to other supplementary 
files but not to the main GL library files - if so - where can I find the 
GL lib files?

Many thanks for any help on this.

All the best,

Suresh Keswani
