That's fine with me. Many of the examples used to use GLUT and OpenGL,
just look through the git history.

When I work on those tutorials again I have two directions I want to work in:
  * Add font support/examples using my freetype2 binding.
  * Clone each example and do it using the more modern OpenGL concepts
instead of the fixed function immediate mode.
