Re: [PyOpenGL-Users] Glinter: GUI toolkit for PyOpenGL

[David O'G. <do...@ER...>]

Glinter is an attempt at using OpenGL graphics techniques and the GLUT
windowing system (both wrapped by PyOpenGL) to produce a usable GUI
toolkit for PyOpenGL (and any other application).

The difference between it and PyUI is this: PyUI uses the PyGame,
PyOpenGL, PIL, and ActiveState systems to produce a rather
stunning-looking GUI toolkit; Glinter uses only PyOpenGL. Its main intent
is to produce a useable widget set "out of the box". If the user has
PyOpenGL2.0 installed, he can use Glinter. In this manner, Glinter is much
like the GLUI toolkit (www.cs.unc.edu/~rademach/glui), which uses only
GLUT for it's windowing system.

I plan for Glinter to be visually appealing, without being graphically
intensive. As such, it should be usable even on systems without high-end
graphics cards (like mine ;-)).
