              HOpenGL, a Haskell binding for OpenGL and GLUT
                               version 1.03

I am pleased to announce the fourteenth release of the Haskell binding
for GL 1.2.1 / GLU 1.3 / GLUT 3.7beta. It offers easy access to *the*
industrial strength 3D graphics API and a GUI toolkit. More details
about HOpenGL can be found at

                        http://haskell.org/HOpenGL

It is yet another compatibility release, which fixes a few bugs in the
configuration process and makes installation a bit more flexible. If
you are happy with the previous version, you don't need this release,
as there are no new features. What's new:

    * Fixed GLUT version test, so GLUT API version 4 features like game
      mode and key-up callbacks are correctly detected.

    * The automatic test for -split-objs works again.

    * Added support for installing HOpenGL in user-specified locations.

    * The values of CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS during configuration are
      remembered.

    * The paths to build tools can contain spaces.

    * The test for GLX has been improved.

    * Added workaround for buggy SUN OpenGL header.

    * Renamed --with-Mesa and --with-efence configure options to
      --enable-Mesa and --enable-efence.

As always, feedback and/or patches are highly welcome.

Have fun!
