Luis Quesada 0e1b392058 Modified browser launchers in Linux Sys.openURL method.
Added `sensible-browser' as the first browser launcher option, even before `xdg-open'.
`sensible-browser' tries to open an URL using the preferred web browser, while `xdg-open' just to open a resource (not just an URL) with the preferred application.
Since the method is called openURL and a URL (Uniform Resource Locator) is a web address, `sensible-browser' fits the functionality better.
A notable difference would be calling Sys.openURL('localhost').
Since `localhost' has no leading `http://', `xdg-open' would try to open a `localhost' file and fail, while `sensible-browser' would launch the appropriate browser.

While `sensible-browser' is particular of Debian-based systems and is not as common as xdg-open, this does not negatively affect systems that do not have `sensible-browser':
Were it not present in the system, the rest of the browser launchers would be tried, starting by `xdg-open'.

Added `iceweasel' after `firefox'. `iceweasel' is the Debian fork of Firefox.

Added `google-chrome' and `chromium'. `chromium' is provided in Debian instead of `google-chrome'.
Since the stats in http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_stats.asp show that Google Chrome is used by more users than Firefox, I put both Google Chrome and Chromium before Firefox in the list.
This change will not affect most of the users, as they will have a preferred browser set up with either `sensible-browser' or `xdg-open'.

LWJGL - Lightweight Java Game Library

The Lightweight Java Game Library (LWJGL) is a solution aimed directly at professional and amateur Java programmers alike to enable commercial quality games to be written in Java. LWJGL provides developers access to high performance crossplatform libraries such as OpenGL (Open Graphics Library), OpenCL (Open Computing Language) and OpenAL (Open Audio Library) allowing for state of the art 3D games and 3D sound. Additionally LWJGL provides access to controllers such as Gamepads, Steering wheel and Joysticks. All in a simple and straight forward API.

Compilation

LWJGL requires a JDK and Ant installed to compile, as well as your platforms native compiler to compile the JNI.

  • ant generate-all
  • ant compile
  • ant compile_native
