"Dont start". What does that mean? Your programs crash? You get an error
message? Please be more
explicit.

What is glutf90.h ? It is not part of the OpenGL package.

glutMainLoop loops forever (up to program exit). Code after it will never get
executed.

These 2 lines are total nonsense. FCB stands for Fortran CallBack.
- Fortran is unsupported by the OpenGL package. I am not interrested in adding
that support,
but I would accept patches that do.
- Even if it was supported, you cannot blindly insert a call to a Fortran
function into a C function.
- glutGetFCB is called to know the function associated with some callback, in
the case above,
the callback for the button box. You try to call the callback function
directly, but you have not
set such a callback function previously (in C, with glutButtonBoxFunc, in
Fortran, presumably with
glutSetFCB).
- I don't think that button boxes are supported on Windows. They were some
Silicon Graphics things.
- Calling things begining by __glut makes no sense. The functions names in the
Glut library begin
by glut. The linker is responsible for finding the internal name of the
corresponding function.

I think your problem is deeper than that. You need to explain what you are
trying to do. If you
are trying to port some Fortran program that was meant to run on Silicon
Graphics to Windows
you will have a hard time.

Please send any question or comment about the OpenGL package to cygwin at
cygwin dot com,
not directly to me.
