    <para>
      <application>Freeglut</application> is intended to be a 100%
      compatible, completely opensourced clone of the GLUT library.
      GLUT is a window system independent toolkit for writing OpenGL
      programs, implementing a simple windowing API, which makes
      learning about and exploring OpenGL programming very easy.
