Caveats

Conflicting modes, such as Bf Sy
single Ef
and Bf Sy
double Ef
have the same interaction as for glutInitDisplayMode().

Todo

Bf Sy
GLUT_BORDERLESS Ef
and Bf Sy
GLUT_OFFSCREEN Ef
are not represented.

Not all features appear to be implemented. In particular, numeric parameters and comparator specifications are lacking. See GLUT 3.7 sources for example.
