    <p>The Ne-He tutorials (to which @wich has already kindly provided a link) are quite good for what they are (but at least the last time I looked carefully, the OpenGL the teach and work with is quite dated). </p> <p>glut, however, I'd generally avoid. It has a fair number of bugs, and nobody's working on fixing them (the current version is 3.7, which claims to be at a "late beta" stage -- and has been for over 10 years now).</p> <p>A couple of alternatives to glut (both apparently in active development) are <a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/glfw/" rel="noreferrer">GLFW</a> and <a href="http://www.fltk.org/" rel="noreferrer">FLTK</a>. Between these, GLFW is much closer to glut in character -- a small toolkit for abstracting away most of the OS-dependent parts, so you can produce OpenGL programs with relatively little hassle. FLTK is really a full-blown GUI toolkit (though rather small as GUI toolkits go) that has a built-in glut emulation (that, at least the last time I played with it, seemed considerably better implemented than glut itself).</p> <p><strike>Edit: looking at the web page, it looks like calling GLFW's development "active" might have been something of an overstatement. It was last updated in 2007 -- though it doesn't seem to me like it <em>needs</em> a lot more work like glut does.</strike> Update: GLFW development seems to have picked up in late 2010, and can be considered active again.</p> <p>I suppose I should also point out one more alternative to glut: <a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/freeglut/" rel="noreferrer">freeglut</a> is a free re-implementation of the glut API. I can't say I really recommend it, but at least it's better than glut.</p> <p>Edit2: When/if you decide you want to play around with shaders, both <a href="http://developer.amd.com/gpu/rendermonkey/Pages/default.aspx" rel="noreferrer">AMD/ATI</a> and <a href="http://developer.nvidia.com/page/home.html" rel="noreferrer">nVidia</a> have developer web pages. nVidia's, in particular, has a huge amount of free "stuff" available (just beware that it's easy to burn all too many hours playing around with some of their demos and such).</p>

    2. CO(advice) do not put too much hope onto GLFW, it has its amount of bugs, which may become a showstopper if you try to approach something ambitious with; for prototyping though, it may be the best choice

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
