#### License

MIT/X11 license (same as Lua). See [LICENSE](./LICENSE).

#### Documentation

See the [Reference Manual](https://stetre.github.io/moonglut/doc/index.html).

#### Getting and installing

Setup the build environment as described [here](https://github.com/stetre/moonlibs), then:

```sh

$ git clone https://github.com/stetre/moonglut

$ cd moonglut

moonglut$ make

moonglut$ make install # or 'sudo make install' (Ubuntu)

```

#### Example

```lua

-- Script: hello.lua

glut = require("moonglut")

glut.init(arg)

glut.init_context(3, 3, "core")

glut.init_display_mode("rgb", "double", "depth")

glut.init_window_size(400, 300)

glut.init_window_position(200, 200)

glut.create_window("Hello world!");

glut.display_func(function() 

   print ("rendering function")

end)

glut.main_loop()

```

The script can be executed at the shell prompt with the standard Lua interpreter:

```shell

$ lua hello.lua

```
