Hey I'm a programmer looking to port some of my opengl ...although

series of points that represent a 3d slope presented to the user.
Thanks

That'd a fairly simple demo; you'll find a "big brother" of it in the
"dots" demo with PyOpenGL (which is a particle system composed of dots
(points)).
OpenGLContext has a number of demos for displaying pointsets (dots),
including the basic pointset test that just creates a set of 20 points
or so.
If what you mean is that you want to create a *mesh* from a point-set,
then you need to add some more information, particularly you need a way
to figure out the topological connections between points. If it's a
regular x,y grid, you can readily construct the polygons, if not, you
get into something a little more fuzzy.
Good luck,
Mike
