It is free. I'm not sure if you can just strip out the interface to OpenGL but for your purposes you may be able to use LearningWorks as is. Or you can always ask if you can take the OpenGL -- http://learningworks.neometron.com/default.htm. For some reason I believe that I read that it was available. Anyhow see below for some of the features of LearningWorks: LearningWorks is under active development. This release of LearningWorks was released on July 31, 1997. It features: The ability to start LearningWorks without loading a course. Once started, you can use the Course Binder's Settings page to specify the names of the course definition file, course directory, and user directory. A new implementation of the LearningBook framework that greatly simplifies the preparation of book sections and pages. A completed set of Smalltalk programming tools that obey the author-specified rules for class and method visibility. A revised and extended set of documentation. The ability to create applications using 3D graphics for Windows 95 and NT systems with OpenGL. The ability to link to Open Community, a multicast communications framework from Mitsubishi Electric ITA. Open Community runtime capability is available NT 4.0 only. We use Open Community to link multiple team members for chat-based communications and shared construction of virtual worlds. New books. The Turtles book has been revived. This release also includes books that show off the new simulation framework, 3D graphics, and Open Community. and more ....
