Howdy- I'm looking for some way to run GL code on a PC and I heard that
VOGL can map onto X, PC junk, etc.  (please don't ask why I need to do this-
it's painful to even have to ask about it)  I checked around sgi.com and
didn't find it- does anyone know where VOGL should be or any other GL-mapping
libraries that might help?  (I wouldn't be surprised if some smart company
was taking the OpenGL code and porting it to a PC to make tons of $$$, BTW)...

						thanks in advance,
						  kevin

		/graphics/vogle/vort.tar.Z      Ray tracer and support tools.
                /graphics/vogle/vogle.tar.Z     3D device independent graphics
                                                library.
                /graphics/vogle/vopl.tar.Z      2d plotting library written in
                                                the above.
                /graphics/vogle/vogl.tar.Z      SGI GL subset library - also
                                                device independent, based on

                /graphics/vogle/hershey.tar.Z   Hershey font library for SGI
                                                GL, included in VOGL.

	Does anyone have these available via e-mail?  Not everyone can
	talk tightwad administrators into direct net access. :)
	Or, if someone would be so kind, if they happened to have these
	files under their fingers, and they mailed them
	OR THEIR DOCS to me....  (It's not a pretty sight having to beg...)

      It's too bad that it takes almost half of our life
	to realize that it was a "Do-It-Yourself" project.
