<H1>Cleaning up the loose ends</H1>
<P>
Many loose-end projects are marked by comments containing "XXX".
Any of those you'd like to tackle are fair game.
<P>
Some other things that would be nice:
<UL TYPE=DISC>
<LI>Use <B>const</B> more consistently throughout the code.
<LI>Use <B>string</B> in preference to <B>char*</B> where possible.
<LI>Add the concept of test categories, assign each test to one or
more of them, and add a way to run all the tests in a given
category.
<LI>Push the <B>Test</B> class hierarchy down one more level of detail.
(I actually did this, factoring out everything that's common to
classes like BasicTest, but it turned out to be more awkward to
use than just cutting and pasting code, so I backed out the changes.
After a few more tests are written, it should be more clear how to do
this correctly.)
<LI>Automated checks for memory leaks.
<LI>GLX 1.3 support.
