A18: You can not do it currently. I am considering such support for a possible GLUT 4.0. I’d like to have a portable solution. What you’d like is a callback that would tell you when a socket is ready for reading and writing. I’m hoping to find a way to support this in an operating system independent manner. Does anyone know of a good portable interface for networked bytestream connections? For now, you’ve got the source code to GLUT and you could hack it into GLUT for whatever particular interface your operating system provides.
