  The eqHello example is a minimal application to illustrate the basic principle
  of an Equalizer application: The application developer has to implement the
  rendering method <code>Channel::frameDraw</code>, similar to
  the <code>glutDisplayFunc</code> in GLUT applications. It can be run as a
  stand-alone application from the command line.
</p>
<p>
  The eqHello redraw function renders six rotating, colored quads around the
  origin. The <code>frameDraw</code> method provided by
  the <code>eq::Channel</code> can be used as a convience function to setup the
  frustum and other OpenGL state. After setting up some additional lighting
  parameter, eqHello rotates the scene and render the quads using immediate mode
  rendering.
