* Introduction
Brian Paul added in Mesa 3.1 a driver for BeOS R4.5 operating system.
This driver implements a clone of the BGLView class. This class, derived from BView, allows
OpenGL rendering into any BeOS window.
His driver was updated in Mesa 4.1 by Philippe Houdoin,
who's maintaining this driver since.

Any application which uses the BGLView should be able to use Mesa
instead of Be's OpenGL without changing any code.

work with the new Mesa 3.1 BGLView implementation.
The Glide library hasn't been updated for BeOS R4 and newer, to my knowledge, as
of February, 1999.
