It would be nice to have more generic instructions than 'download this sample .zip file' for those of us not running Windows.

Hi mheath, thanks for the feedback.

You're right, I should provide more detailed instructions. I was under the impression that opening an Eclipse project wouldn't be significantly different between operating systems as Eclipse is cross-platform, however seeing as your brought the issue to my attention I will do some research on importing projects into Eclipse for Mac and Linux as well as Windows. I will also provide an alternate to a .zip archive.

If you have any other critiques or suggestions I kindly welcome them, as Windows is the only environment I am familiar with.

Thanks again.

you should mention that your tutorials are using JOGL 1.x (maybe i overlooked it).
For people looking for JOGL 2.x tutorials should take a look at: http://www.dzone.com/links/new_getting_started_with_jogl_2_tutorials.html

Hi mbien, thanks for the comment.
I did mention that the JOGL libraries on there were not the latest, and provided a link to joglamp for those wanting to download the 2.x libraries. However I'll update the tutorial and try to make it clearer that I'm using JOGL 1.x and at some point I'll change the source zip and tar file to include the 2.x libraries instead.

Cheers for the feedback.
