making it more easily maintainable and less prone to getting rusty as

Python port of the OGL library located at wx.lib.ogl contributed by
Pierre Hj<48>lm. Starting in version 2.5.5 the old ogl is no longer

location of OGL. The deprecated version is located in the wx.ogl
module, and the new version is in the wx.lib.ogl package. So this
just means that to start using the new version you need to adjust your
imports. So if your code currently has something like this::
