  9.    custEducation - the earlier graphics tutorials have been, at least for
  10.                    the time being, retired from service since they were not
  11.                    rigorous enuff for 5.1 Irix.  Currently a new set of 
  12.                    programs have been developed all implemented in OpenGL.
  13.                    In version 3.3 of the Developer Toolbox there are two
  14.                    opengl subtrees that are being taught by SGI's Technical
  15.                    Education Department:
  16.                     opengl1:  OpenGL Programming 1 Course -- Sample Programs
  17.                     (covering the basics)
  18.                    and 
  19.                     opengl2:  OpenGL Programming 2 Course -- Sample Programs

  23.    geometer      - illustrates concepts of 2-D Euclidean & projective 
  24.                    geometry by enabling the user to visually "prove" to
  25.                    herself the validity of any number of geometric proofs
  26.                    and theorems.  It also contains code that solves 2-D 
  27.                    constraint problems, and illustrates an interesting 
  28.                    form of user interface that allows both graphical and 
  29.                    textual interaction.
