+# GLUT is quite an old library and it is difficult to ensure proper
+# integration within IPython since original GLUT does not allow to handle
+# events one by one. Instead, it requires for the mainloop to be entered
+# and never returned (there is not even a function to exit he
+# mainloop). Fortunately, there are alternatives such as freeglut
+# (available for linux and windows) and the OSX implementation gives
+# access to a glutCheckLoop() function that blocks itself until a new
+# event is received. This means we have to setup the idle callback to
+# ensure we got at least one event that will unblock the function.
+#
+# Furthermore, it is not possible to install these handlers without a window
+# being first created. We choose to make this window invisible. This means that
+# display mode options are set at this level and user won't be able to change
+# them later without modifying the code. This should probably be made available
+# via IPython options system.
