    Higher-level OpenGL modules

    Greetings,

    Does anybody know of or is working on any python modules that allow for
    a direct but higher-level interface to OpenGL? For example, quick
    functions to draw lines, curves, and basic shapes; define hsb color
    mode; fill and stroke operations; easy loading of images, svg files,
    etc (much like the processing language -
    http://www.processing.org/reference/index.html). The closest thing I
    could find was devachan - http://www.cesaremarilungo.com/sw/devachan/,
    but its very limited. Any response would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks
    Leon

    Hava a look at Amanith http://www.amanith.org
    OpenGL is that "low" level by design. Everything beyond is to be
    packed into other libraries.

      http://pyopengl.sourceforge.net/ I wouldn't begin to tell you how to
      install this.. Looks like russian roulette with virus since the .dll's
      are not available and are not linked from the site but are available
      from lots of places in the google search. Looks like there is a
      copyright that might prevent you from distributing copies of your
      program with the other library. I am not an expert of pyexe though and
      what that does. I also noticed scipy and that seemed to work well,
      shame there isn't templates for the objects in boa-constructor

        Thanks guys!, Ill look into your suggestions. I'm actually currently
        working directly with pyOpenGL, but hopefully Ill find something that
        would make me more efficient. I might end up writing a library myself.

          Soya? I don't know if it fulfill your needs, though.

            I think you're very mistaken... it's a little over-complex, but
            everything you need is up there, on the installation and download
            pages, and the only other .dlls you need are the OpenGL ones which the
            original poster will already have.
