Okay, I did some reading through the mail archives and found the file I =
needed.  I guess this means the documentation just needs to be updated =
so people know to get this file (glext.h), and where to get it.

Here's the URL for those of you looking for it:
http://oss.sgi.com/projects/ogl-sample/ABI/glext.h

  Subject: [Nel] gl.h


  -- I'm compiling in win98, using MS VC++ 6.0.

  I get the following errors:

  Compiling...
  driver_opengl.cpp
  C:\snowballs\nel\src\3d\driver\opengl\driver_opengl_extension.h(44) : =
fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'GL/glext.h': No such file =

fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'GL/glext.h': No such file =
or directory
  Error executing cl.exe.

  Okay, so I go check the code, and I find out there's a comment there =
telling me to go download something (Shouldn't this sort of thing be in =
the readme file?)...

  #include <GL/glext.h> // Please download it from =
http://oss.sgi.com/projects/ogl-sample/ABI/"

  I go to do that, and there's 2 versions available.  I grab the most =
recent, and unpack it to a temporary directory so I can go looking for =
these files, and maybe figure out exactly where I need to put them.

  I can find glx.h, but there is no glext.h or gl.h... (both of which =
are required).

  What am I missing?
