Re: questions on Ada openGL binding in the GLOBE3D packages

You seem to be confused. What you call "the standard" is
just the C binding. The standard explicitly states that
example syntax is in C, and that other languages with better
namespace handling and subprogram overloading can do things
differently.
Writing GL.Vertex is more readable than GL.glVertex2d.
Let the compiler figure out the types of your parameters, 
and how many, you specify. It will complain if it can't find 
a match.

Some people complain about Ada being too verbose; In this case,
I would say C is more verbose, why should that be a bad thing 
for Ada?
