Kenny,

thx for quickly coming back. Seems as if we're back in chat mode ;-)

Ah, now I got it. Well, sometimes I am bit slow ;-) Ok. Now, not using
glut-set-option doesn't hurt for what I'm trying to accomplish...

This is my fallback, yes. But I'm not yet that frustrated to do so ;-)

Sir. Yes, Sir. :-)

Sir. Yes, Sir. :-)

You will. It's in the build.lisp file. I simply do:

and then

Apple GLUT loading definitions is distributed across the cl-opengl
config files (which are included also) and the glut-functions.lisp file.

As always, I have marked my changes with the string "frgo" in them. You
can search for that to find the places.

I will now be off for our weekly dancing course doing Cha-Cha and the
like. Will be back in 2 hours.
