If you look at the online version of the OpenGL redbook here http://www.rush3d.com/reference/opengl-redbook-1.1/chapter08.html the example C code for glBitmap is: [...]
The GLUT package contains all examples from the Red Book, see: http://darcs.haskell.org/packages/GLUT/examples/RedBook/ The coding style is probably not the best one can imagine, but the intention is to give a very close 1:1 mapping of these well-known examples in Haskell. If you have read the Red Book (what everybody trying to do some OpenGL programming should have done IMHO), you should have no trouble understanding the Haskell examples. As already mentioned in another post, loading image data is by design out of the scope of OpenGL, but the examples contain a loader for a trivial raw RGB format: http://darcs.haskell.org/packages/GLUT/examples/RedBook/ReadImage.hs For further questions, hopengl@haskell.org is probably a better mailing list.
