Re: eXene and openGL

That would be great and solve the problem.

A while back I wrote a swig -> xml -> sxml -> gambit-C FFI generator.

I found swig to be quite robust.

That's because it could understand function definitions and such.  It  
didn't parse functions, but if they were in the include file, it  
could at least get the declaration and skip over the rest.

ml-nlffigen doesn't like functions in the headers and it also doesn't  
like:

__attribute__ (("whatever"))

Which I didn't even existed...
