Hi,

In your list, you are missing XGL, from Sun Microsystems. XGL does 3D graphics
in the X environment. It is an immediate mode library, providing standard
primitives such as polylines, polygons, nurbs curves, text... in 2D ad 3D.
XGL also provides lighting/shading, hidden-line/hidden-surface removal and
depth cueing.

For more information, contact your Sun representative.
