RE: [PyOpenGL-Users] Python 2.0?

Hmm, thought I'd fixed the wall.bmp thing.  Guess not.  Not sure why
distutils is splitting the data files out :( .  Guess I'll have to look into
that.  Sometimes I feel like distutils is entirely too sophisticated for its
own good.  Why in my day we'd just dump a tar-ball in the Python directory,
and doggone it, we liked it that way! :o)

Enjoy all,
Mike

* after doing an install I ended up with a directory /usr/OpenGLContext
which contained the dirs "docs" and "test". The former contained a few
html files and a css file, the latter some images (no .py files). I moved
them to /usr/lib/python2.0/site-packages/OpenGLContext along with the rest
of the samples.

* at least one of the samples tries to load a texture which is referenced
to as an uppercase filename, such as WALL.BMP (don't remember the exact
name, but I can check it up). The file on disk was wall.bmp. Loading that
file works on limited systems that aren't able to distinguish between
case, such as Windows, but on samrter systems it fails. This is no problem
at all, as the tests are just that: test programs.
