There is a binding that's supposed to come with GLUT, but last time I
downloaded GLUT gl.ads and glu.ads were missing and I had to scout around
for them (If you choose to use them or want to look at them, but can't find
them you can email me and I'll send them to you).

Again, how do you use it?  Can you just add pragma linker_options
("gl32.dll") on windows?
