I’ve compiled, read and tested code on the svn.
I need to get an OpenGl book :D

@ Daniel:  Absolutely!  Essentially the image processing is regular drawing, except instead of writing to the framebuffer that is associated with the display its writing into a framebuffer that maps to memory on the GPU (so it reads from one image and writes another one).  Actually this is very common in graphics programming, many games use e.g. a render to texture approach to implement shadows or other more advanced effects like mirros, glowing or stuff like that.

@gally:  sweet, I hope it compiled OK.  I have a whole bunch of other code that I havent uploaded to svn yet.  I go kind of lazy with the svn project after a while because I am going o integrate into touchlib anyway and its easier to test one shader at a time.  I have a bunch of more filters ready to go.  If youd be willing to do some more testing, I’ll hopefull get some time after today to integrate some of the other filters(got a school deadline to worry about for now though).  If you want to learn more about OpenGL I recommend the red book and Nehe’s OpenGL tutorials at nehe.gamedev.net.
