HoboBen	All/most the NeHe OpenGL tutorials start with... #include <windows.h> // Header File For Windows #include <stdio.h> // Header File For Standard Input/Output #include <gl\gl.h> // Header File For The OpenGL32 Library #include <gl\glu.h> // Header File For The GLu32 Library #include <gl\glaux.h> // Header File For The Glaux Library --v However, commenting out gl\glu.h and gl\gl.h, it still works. As I've been taught not to include libraries that I don't need, why are these included when they don't make a difference? Are they left in for use when the project expands and they may eventually be needed? Muchly thank you. -=-=- blog \| work \| code \| more code

Jayenkai	Check through gl\glaux.h, and see if that includes the other two at any point. (But keep in mind I'm not really that good at C, so I may be talking garbage!) -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

HoboBen	You're right - gl\glaux.h contains includes for gl\gl.h and gl\glu.h Does sticking them in anyway cause them to be included twice? -=-=- blog \| work \| code \| more code

HoboBen	Ok, thank you anyway.
