    What kind of project is TPT in C++?  Is it OpenGL, a console application or D application or what?  I'm trying to figure out to create my own chemistry/physics game using C++.

    I'm not sure what you are looking at, TPT is just a plain c++ application. It doesn't use any fancy libs like OpenGL.

    It's not based on any project template.
    ...also D is a programming language itself, not C++ :P

    TPT uses C++ as itself, and libSDL as the graphics/opengl/witchcraft backend.

    Where can you find libSDL?  Also since libSDL is apperently written in C, will it still work if I include it into C++?

    Maybe you should look at the wiki. It has guides for compiling on all platforms so should help you get it compiled with the libs you need.
