But it uses cogl, which we still lack from guile. It would be nice if you take a
quick look at it and if it suites your needs, rather helping with the cogl wrapper.

I am not the developer of guile-gnome, and never wrapped any lib yet, I am a
guile-gnome guile-clutter user ... but i think you probably want, even if you
wrap opengl, to take a look at the doc on how to write a wrapper: you'll find them
if you git clone guile-gnome [and guile-clutter for your coding curiosity maybe], or
browse the git repo ...

I think there is an SDL recently updated but not sure.

try to see if cogl could do the work before, and if not, good luck: wrapping opengl
is a huge work!

Cheers,
David
