Summary: install 2.0.0.44 on Mac OS X

Initial Comment:
I can find a tgz package w/ binaries for pyopengl 
1.5.6, but I am using python 2.1 and latest numpy 
so apparently need (and would want) pyopengl 2.

However there is no config file for v2 for OS X 
(darwin, or darwin1). I began to look at the config 
files to see if I could figure out what to change 
(from freebsd for example) but it began to look a 
little ugly to me. While it might be "good for me" I 
have no particular desire to lear how to do this 
right now. I just want to use pyopengl under OS X.

Should I be able to build/install pyopengl2 on OS 
X?

BTW, I have Tenon's Xtools X server.

Thanks in advance.

Porting of PyOpenGL2 to Mac9 (and I presume OSX) is not 
completed and is currently stalled.  At least for Mac9 the 
distutils metroworks compiler only compiles libs.  For 
configuration purposes PyOpenGL2 needs to be able to 
compile executables (in 
distutils.mwerkscompiler.MWerksCompiler.link)

Eventually it would be nice for distutils.command.config to 
work, i.e. compile and preprocess, but this is not an 
imperative right now.

The work for these methods to work on all other compilers 
has been done, excepting MetroWerks.
