A static build version could be provided, so user do not have to install
many other things to make the demo program even run. This is what I did with
the Fortran openGL. Yes, the demos are much larger in size now, but
it is only one file. Download and run. It includes inside it all
the libraries needed linked in statically.
Having to download many other libraries just to see a demo program,
will discourage people from even trying it.
