    <h2><a name="intro">Introduction</a></h2>

    Togl is a <a href="http://www.tcl.tk/">Tk</a> widget for
    <a href="http://www.opengl.org/">OpenGL</a> rendering.
    Togl was originally based on OGLTK, written by Benjamin Bederson at
    the University of New Mexico.

    Togl's main features are:

    <ul>
      <li>unifies Microsoft Windows, X11 (Linux/IRIX/...), and Mac OS X Aqua support
      <li>support for requesting stencil, accumulation, alpha buffers, <i>etc</i>.
      <li>multiple OpenGL drawing windows
      <li>simple stereo rendering support
      <li>simple, portable font support
      <li>color-index mode support including color allocation functions
      <li>overlay plane support
      <li>OpenGL extension testing from Tcl
      <li>Tcl Extension Architecture (TEA) 3 compliant
    </ul>

    <p>
    Togl does almost no OpenGL drawing itself,
    instead it manages OpenGL drawing by calling various Tcl commands
    (<i>a.k.a.</i>, callback functions).
    Those commands can be C functions that call OpenGL (in)directly
    or another Tcl package
    (<i>e.g.</i>, <a href="http://www.tcl3d.org/">Tcl3D</a>).

    <h2><a name="mailing">Mailing list</a></h2>

    <h2><a name="bugs">Reporting Bugs</a></h2>

    <p>
    There is a bug database on the
    <a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/togl/">Togl Project Page</a>.
    You may also discuss bugs on the mailing list.
    <p>
    It may be worth upgrading your graphics driver and retesting
    before reporting a bug,
    as, historically,
    many Togl &quot;bugs&quot; have been fixed by a graphics driver upgrade,
    especially on Microsoft Windows.
    <p>
    When reporting bugs please provide as much information as possible.
    Such as the version of Togl, which operating system
    (<i>e,g.</i>, Windows XP, Red Hat Linux, Mac OS X, <i>etc.</i>),
    the version of the operating system,
    and the version of the graphics driver.
    Also, it's very helpful to us if you can provide an example program
    which demonstrates the problem.

    <br>
