Ok, scratch all of that. My glut.h is not found. Where is it so I can link it (windows).

GLUT is an old, outdated library that's only rarely used nowadays. It isn't included in MSVC (9.0) and neither in MinGW. If you really want it, you can download it here


Is there a better library to get? The only tutorials I have found use GLUT.
I guess the ones that are most used are SDL and SFML.


Well I have already used SDL. I used that recently just before I got into OpenGl. So do you know of any tutorials that use strictly opengl or a combination gl/sdl?

You could just use the Win32 API to Open a window/create an OpenGL context (tutorial: NEHE) or you could use SDL or GLFW which are platform independant and generally a bit easier to use.

SDL
GLFW
NeHe has some SDL tutorials.
Cool, alright, thanks guys.
