Glide API

Wine already works fine with the Linux version of Glide. You need Voodoo
hardware to be able to use this though.

Someone could create a Glide>OpenGL library independantly of Wine and also call
it libglide{23}x.so. Then all Linux Glide apps could use it and Wine would also
use it automaticly. It may be handy to look into porting an opensource version
of a currently existing wrapper from Windows.

This is not really related to Wine directly. This wrapper could and should be
created independantly of Wine.
