NAME
     glutMainLoop — The standard GLUT event loop entry point.

LIBRARY
     OpenGLUT - mainloop

SYNOPSIS
     #include <openglut.h>

     void
     glutMainLoop(void);

DESCRIPTION
     This is the main driving force for an event-driven OpenGLUT program.  It
     alternates between calling glutMainLoopEvent() to process pending events
     and then either sleeping or calling your idle function (see glutIdle‐
     Func()).

     This function  can	  return, but GLUT's version of this function never
     returned.	And you must do special things to OpenGLUT to cause OpenGLUT's
     version to return.

     The cross-reference section for this function's documentation should ide‐
     ally contain every callback, but the list would be tediously long and
     prone to omissions.

CAVEATS
     For OpenGLUT developers' internal documentation: Runs until the  Exec‐
     State  changes to	GLUT_EXEC_STATE_STOP.

BUGS
     Talking to other message systems (e.g., network layers) can be a bit
     bothersome under the GLUT event model.

SEE ALSO
