Re: [PyOpenGL-Users] oriented object programming & PyOpenGL

hi eric

as you notice opengl does not include itself the idea of classes, it is 
based on the concept of "state machine". But you can create your own 
classes that wrap the opengl commands. However as mike points there is a 
lot of work done on top of opengl.
