+This port installs section 3 manpages for the OpenGL 3d graphics API
+so that they are directly accessable from the man(1)
+command. Especially useful for the graphics/Mesa port/package.
+
+Included OpenGL related libraries: gl, glx, glu, gle, glut.
+
+gl, glx and glu are taken from ftp.sgi.com. They carried no version
+information. Stored in the same directory at the time I grabbed them
+was the OpenGL spec 1.2.1, which may or may not indicate the state of
+the manpages :-/
+
+The gl, glx and glu manpages are unusable when just unpacking them. I
+repackaged them so that
+- the file name actually is the name of the function, including
+ gl... etc prefixes and respecting case.
+- all filenames end in *.3
+- hard links are created so that the man command works for all
+ functions in a manpage, not just the first one.
+
+gle and glut are taken from the glut-3.7 distribution (where the
+Webpage sais it is beta, but the distfile name does not). These are
+unchanged, but there are currently no hardlinks to secondary functions
+names.
