Starting the executable

|

|

=======================

"runfg" is a script which sets the FG_ROOT and LD_LIBRARY_PATH

Flying is mainly done via the numeric keypad. There is some
|
|
|
|
|
unresolved wierdness with the GLUT libraries and keyboard input, so
|
|
|
|
|
for now, the state of the "Num Lock" key is important.
