Have you gotten the OpenGL Dev-Pack?
One of those starting questions...

Get the dll, header file from this site http://www.xmission.com/~nate/glut.html.
Put header file in the ..\include\gl folder. When compiling link with -lglut32.
I don't know about gcc 2.95 but gcc 3.2 has the proper import library libglut32.a.

No, I didn't get the OpenGL Dev Pack, and I didn't know where to find it, either. If you have the link can you please send it to me?
Thanks.

You can get it by going to tools:check for updates. There are a number of neat packages there, one of them, if my failing old memory is correct is an OpenGL pack.
Note also that there is in the example directory a simple OpenGL example. Not much, but something use to see if things are in place.
Now, I just realized I was making an assumption which might be...like stupid...what version of Dev are you using? The reason I ask is that if it is an older version of Dev, you might not have the update tool setup with Dev.
I am running 4.9.6.9 right now for comparison.
So, if you are running an older version, I do recommend that you upgrade. Make sure before you run the install of the new version, you unistall the old version.
