OpenGL context inside Emacs buffer

I'm looking for a way to render an opengl scene inside an emacs buffer. Is there a best-practice way of doing this?

The code:

  (assoc 'window-id (frame-parameters (selected-frame)))

will, get you the window id for X11. I'm not sure about other platforms. Once you have that, you can do things to the window from any other X application you want.

If you want to use all Emacs Lisp code, you will need to use the xlib interface, which was adopted into xwem which is a Window manager written in Emacs Lisp.
