[pygame] GLUT and Py2EXE

[Kris Schnee <kschnee@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm looking into the problem of rendering text in OpenGL, with which 
I've had problems, and it looks like a good way to do it is to use GLUT.

I want to be sure I can package up everything a Windows user needs to 
run my program using Py2EXE, without any extra knowledge required on 
their part to install it beyond unzipping it into a directory. But it 
looks as though GLUT requires that a DLL file be installed into some 
system directory such as C:\Windows\System32 in order for a program 
using it to work. Any advice?

I ask because I'd like to use Pygame for the event system, and OpenGL 
for graphics rendering, which gives me the luxury of either using full 
3D graphics or rendering scrolling 2D faster than is possible in Pygame 
-- but doing text in OpenGL is a pain.
