I will keep it in mind. My focus now is on building openGL tutorial programs such as this: https://paroj.github.io/gltut/index.html
or this: https://www.linuxjournal.com/content/introduction-opengl-programming
the exercise is already giving me insight into the Squeak openGL and should be of use when I get to the FFI part.
cheers,
