Anyone know about this? I was bored and messing around with some C++ boards and was reading about upsides and downsides between DirectX and OpenGL and noticed someone metioned they found GLUT easier then both of them -- Anyone know what this GLUT is? I assume it is a C/C++ compatible API, but I don't know much more, like is it OS specific?

Thanks for any info, links, etc.

GLUT (GL Utility Toolkit) is a multiplatform library for creating UIs for OpenGL apps.
