Re: [PyOpenGL-Users] (no subject)

Python needs a way to provide native python access to the calls.
However, you _can_ directly access the dll's using Python ctypes, but thats a
whole other ballgame.  Ctypes is probably the way things will go, since its so
fast and allows you to write 'os independant' code, but it takes some wrapping
your head around.  Strongly suggest join the ctypes mailing list and look for
the Python GL cookbook stuff online.
