benswift/xtgl

A (very) minimal cross-platform OpenGL window/context creation library

libxtgl

libxtgl is a cross-platform OpenGL context and window management library which was previously part of Extempore (eXTempore's GL library).

This code has since been stripped out of the Extempore executable, and so now if you want to create OpenGL contexts then you can use this library (or any other window/context management library).

If you have any issues using this library in Extempore, check out the Extempore Docs or hit us up on the Extempore mailing list.

Installation

On Linux/OSX, clone the repo or download the source code and make. There's no install step at this stage, but you can manually link it into /usr/local/lib if you like.

I'll put together a homebrew formula when it gets a bit more mature.
