πŸ’– glxdemo(1) β€” General Commands Manual πŸ’–

okay bestie, welcome to the glxdemo page, straight out of the General Commands Manual section, no cap ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

glxdemo β€” a demonstration of the GLX functions


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

glxdemo

that's it. that's the whole vibe. no flags, no arguments, just send it πŸ’…


✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so like, the glxdemo program is basically a living tutorial for the GLX functions πŸ¦‹ it shows you how to use them so you can create an OpenGL program that runs on top of an X server β€” which is, lowkey, the whole plot of the thing.

and here's the tea, bestie: this program is most useful when studied in its source code form πŸ‘‘ like, yes you can run it, but the real main character energy is in reading how it's built. it's giving textbook, but make it compile. πŸ“–βœ¨

no warnings, no bugs, no weird edge cases here β€” just a cute little demo living its best life on your X server 🌈

and that's a wrap, babe πŸ’– this page is from 2006-11-29 and it belongs to glxdemo(1) β€” yes it's been slaying since 2006 and it's still valid. periodt. πŸ’…πŸŒΈ
