GLUT_OVERLAY_POSSIBLE
        Whether an overlay could be  established  for  the
        current  window  given the current initial display
        mode. If  false,  glutEstablishOverlay  will  fail
        with a fatal error if called.

GLUT_LAYER_IN_USE
        Either  GLUT_NORMAL  or  GLUT_OVERLAY depending on
        whether the normal plane or overlay is  the  layer
        in use.

        If  the current window has an overlay established.

GLUT_TRANSPARENT_INDEX

        current  window;  negative  one  is returned if no
        overlay is in use.

GLUT_NORMAL_DAMAGED
        True if the normal plane of the current window has
        damaged (by window system activity) since the last
        display  callback  was  triggered.  Calling  glut-
        PostRedisplay will not set this true.

GLUT_OVERLAY_DAMAGED
        True  if  the  overlay plane of the current window
        has damaged (by window system activity) since  the
        last display callback was triggered. Calling glut-
        PostRedisplay or glutPostOverlayRedisplay will not
        set  this  true.  Negative  one  is returned if no
        overlay is in use.
