I just checked the code in glutmenu.m (what's a .m file?) and it looks
like it creates View, GLUT, and Tools menus when you attach to the left,
middle, and right mouse buttons. I guess that's OK as it would put the
ldglite menus under Tools.
Now I wonder if the glut menus work in the fullscreen game modes that
this version of glut supports. I've been moving away from glut menus
toward something built with a patched version of MUI since it seems to
work in fullscreen game mode, and even stands a chance of working in
the DOS version of opengl. (gotta keep all those ldglite DOS users
happy :)

So its a static picture then? I remember doing an old X-windows app
that actually animated a teeny-tiny version of the fullsize window
when the program was iconified. That was fun.
