[Haskell-cafe] Installing HOpenGL

[Jimmy Miller]

I got the packages imported by using the full names (Graphics.UI.GLUT
and Graphics.Rendering.OpenGL.GL).  The compiler doesn't recognize
names like WindowPosition and WindowSize, but I assume that's because
the code is so out of date (this is from the 2001 tutorial).  I'll
look in the docs to see how to procede.
