Visualises various sort algorithms using OpenGL.
Originally implemented in C ("glsort") and then ported to C++ ("glsort2") during my studies as a fun project in the late 90ies - this is code archaeology, folks :)
It used "raw" OpenGL (2.x at best, I guess) and a GL utility library called GLUT:

Quote: "Download the GLUT 3.7 beta source distribution (shift Left in Netscape)" - oh dear, you know that you are knee-deep in history when a website still mentions "Netscape" ;)
The following screenshots are from the original "glsort", running on Linux:
There are none. But perhaps the idea to:
- Make the code compile again (somehow)
- Get rid of the original makefiles (use CMake instead)
- Port it to "modern C++" and
- Perhaps use Qt as toolkit (I am sceptical about getting GLUT to work ;))
