Everything about OpenGL Utility Toolkit

Computer program library

The OpenGL Utility Toolkit (GLUT) is an outdated library of utilities for OpenGL programs, which primarily perform system-level I/O with the host operating system. Functions performed include window definition, window control, and monitoring of keyboard and mouse input. Routines for drawing a number of geometric primitives are also provided, including cubes, spheres and the Utah teapot. GLUT also has some limited support for creating pop-up menus. Wikipedia →
