1. What is GLTools?
It's an OpenGL driver that allows us to take control of any GPU equipped with ARM or x86 processors. If you're an advanced gamer with high graphical demands or you're interested in optimizing the performance of your graphics processor even if it's just for usual apps, this is the tool you need.
Advance Information.
OpenGL provides an easy to understand, but poweful API to 3D (and 2D) computer graphics capabilities. It is well standardized and nowadays available on every serious computer platform. It is thus a safe long term investment to learn and to use OpenGL for rendering of graphical output.

gltools has been designed with the needs of numerical analysts in mind. Thus, unless many other packages available, it can be used to enhance existing codes with interactive or non-interactive graphical output. It enhances the OpenGL API with the following additional functionality:
- Multiple independent windows.
- Basic interactive handling through mouse and keyboard.
- Interactive three-dimensional rendering volume.
- Character output.
- High quality frame dump in encapsulated postscript format.
- MPEG video recording of window contents.
- Piecewise linear function rendering on two- and three-dimensional simplex meshes (landscape view of plane sections, isolevel surfaces, isolines) with an universal, callback based mesh interface
