Hi guys,

My latest tutorial is up at http://wadeawalker.wordpress.com/2010/12/06/tutorial-displaying-java-opengl-in-an-eclipse-editor-with-a-menu-bar-and-a-runpause-button/.

This one shows how to create a more elaborate app with menus and buttons that renders JOGL in an editor window. It's still pretty minimal, but will eventually demonstrate how to write a full-featured graphics/science/engineering/CAD/EDA app.

I've got lots of experience writing engineering apps using this same framework at my day job, so these tutorials will hopefully let people avoid the dead-ends and mistakes that I've run into over the last several years

Enjoy!

P.S. If anyone out there is willing to try my tutorials on a Mac, I'd really appreciate it. They should run under OS X and Cocoa, but I don't have a Mac, so I can't test that platform.
