How do I link libraries with g++...

[Hendrix]

Hi guys...

I'm trying to use the Mesa (OpenGL) with g++ to develop graphics
applications, but I have no idea how to link the Mesa and Glut libraries
to my program (test.c}....  I've downloaded sample code utilizing header
files and libraries from both Mesa and Glut, but I can't compile the
sample code...  I'm thinking I need to link the libraries into the
source file, but I have no idea how to do this with g++...   Any help
will be greatly appreciated...  Thanks...

Sincerely,
Trevor...

P.S.  I have already successfully installed Mesa from source, and Glut
from RPM...
