Re: [PyOpenGL-Users] Book to refer for learning pyopengl

[Abhijeet R. <abh...@gm...>]

I referred to OpenGL SuperBible which has code in C++. But, the issue is
that its windows specific. Can I atleast get any good resources which are
for linux? I know that opengl code is portable but window-handling code is
platform specific. So, codes that actually compile in linux would be great.
