Shaders, Slab and jxs
Where do I find the basic reading on writing .jxs files for use in
jit.gl.slab?

Moving this thread to the Jitter discussion. Please post Jitter-related topics to jitter@cycling74.com or the Jitter topic in the forums.
Thanks,

Look in the JXS appendix (D?) of the JitterTutorial.pdf. It gives the
spec. Personally, I think the easiest way to learn is to look at
various shader examples that use textures or multiple textures or no
textures and modify them. You can get a feel for the spec easier that
way.

Thanks Wes.
I agree that looking at existing examples is best. I've been doing that.
In fact, almost everything I have ever learned in computer music has come
from looking at examples. Thanks to everyone who posts examples and source
code.
Appendix C is very useful.
Apologies to Wallace for the incorrect posting.

I also recommend looking at either the orange book or the GLSL Language
spec, which is a free PDF download. The most valuable things to know
about GLSL (for use with jit.gl.slab) are the various built-in functions
(such as smoothstep(),dot(),etc.), the "swizzle" syntax, and the
texture lookup stuff. From there you should be able to write a great
deal of shaders by just looking at the extensive examples that come with
Jitter.
Cheers,
Andrew

i find a suitable ide is key. typhoon labs offer an ide for shaders.
with a course and some tutorials. color coded syntax etc...

also.
a good(?) talk on the state of opengl and shaders + tips.

this question is regarding jitter tutorial # 33. is it possible to send
a message to jit.gl.handle to control the way it's spinning with auto
rotate "on" without using the mouse?
thanks, nick
you can use [line] to send control rate 'ramps' to a message
[rotatexyz 0. 0. 0.] and then have 3 lines for each 'direction'. I
too wish there was a nudge message, where you could send a vector
similar to how you make one with your mouse, but the line method
works just fine.

I think this was discussed before, but can't remember keywords.
First that comes to mind is to use monospaced/fixed width fonts. There are
plenty of free ones on the google, and their advantage is that all
characters(including spaces) are the same size, so you could calculate each
character position relatively easy.
