I think it would be pretty easy to scrap that page and stick the key
text bits into the help page. Something like "NAME", "C
SPECIFICATION", "PARAMETERS", and "DESCRIPTION". I imagine that this
stuff doesn't change very often.
Ideally there would be working examples for each function, but that's
a big project. What else should go on that help page?

The GEMgl objects really require a working knowledge of OpenGL, and
it would be a bit much to redo much of the standard texts in the
help patches. Just put a link to: http://www.glprogramming.com/blue/
That should cover most of the objects - even the ones that can't
possibly work in Pd/GEM.

I am just looking at some of the GEMgl stuff, and noticed there are
no helpfiles for any of them. It seems that it would be quite
useful to make a help template for these functions, then generate
them automatically, since the objects themselves were auto-
generated. It would be very nice to have these help patches already
generated from the OpenGL reference, and also included a link,
perhaps.
I just committed GLdefine-help.pd as a start. Any thoughts on that?
