Summary: unable to import GLUT

Initial Comment:
I get the following error upon a command:


>>> from OpenGL.GLUT import *

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<pyshell#2>", line 1, in <module>
    from OpenGL.GLUT import *
  File "build\bdist.win32\egg\OpenGL\GLUT\__init__.py", line 4, in <module>
  File "build\bdist.win32\egg\OpenGL\GLUT\special.py", line 73, in <module>
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'glutDestroyWindow'




Please help me to get GLUT to work

Message:
It would be nice to get a better error message when no glut is available,
for instance in opengl/platform/win32.py, after testing for all the glut
variations (line 51 for me), something like

if GLUT is None:
    logger.warning('No GLUT found, a glut dll must be on the PATH')

It would have saved me some time today...

Your problem is likely that GLUT is not installed, or is installed
somewhere other than on the system's library lookup path.  The newest code
uses checks that allow GLUT not to be installed and still import the GLUT
module, but that doesn't address your problem, which is most likely just a
system setup issue.  Closing for now.
