ModernGL VS PowerShell

Also have a look at this repo https://github.com/NCCA/ModernGL/ which has a load of different demos using different libraries for Context generation and extension loading.

If you follow the instructions I give to my students here https://github.com/NCCA/NGL/blob/main/Windows.md up to the vcpkg install. You can then install GLEW via vcpkg and try something like this https://github.com/NCCA/ModernGL/tree/master for your OpenGL demos.

See if these simple demos work for you https://github.com/NCCA/ModernGL/tree/master (I write these on a mac first if I can, you just need vcpkg and cmake to build).

Also a full working demo to draw a triangle https://github.com/NCCA/ModernGL/tree/master/SDL2TriangleGLEW It uses GLEW on Windows and Linux but defines it out on the Mac, You need CMake and SDL2 installed using vcpkg but you can adapt to your install

I have a number of demos here that use various libs to create a modern OpenGL triangle https://github.com/NCCA/ModernGL

I use glfw with vcpkg which will download and build it for you. Makes things a little easier as you can do it all with CMake. This example (showing OpenGL and GLEW with GLFW) should give you all you need if you want to do it this way. https://github.com/NCCA/ModernGL/tree/master/GLFWTriangleGLEW

You need to ensure you use either a full core profile context or an old compatibility OpenGL 2.1 context, you can't mix and match (Like in Windows / linux). Also Vertex Array Objects are mandatory for core profile on the mac (on some older systems you can get away without using them). Personally I use either Qt or SDL2 for creating the context but you can also use other frameworks. I've got a load of simple demos using different frameworks here https://github.com/NCCA/ModernGL Including one that uses the Objective C / coca for creating the window / context.

Here is a basic example drawing a coloured triangle using two buffers, https://github.com/NCCA/ModernGL/blob/master/PyQtTriangle/PyQtTriangle.py You can modify this to draw points quite easily by changing the glDrawArrays(GL_TRIANGLES, 0, 3) call to use GL_POINTS

Creating the context you have a few options, SDL2, GLFW Qt or native mac. I wrote a series of demos to draw a basic triangle https://github.com/NCCA/ModernGL Each one uses a different tool / library. It uses cmake and vcpkg to install all the libs you need etc.

msiexec.exe /package https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/releases/download/v7.2.6/PowerShell-7.2.6-win-x64.msi /quiet ADD_EXPLORER_CONTEXT_MENU_OPENPOWERSHELL=1 ADD_FILE_CONTEXT_MENU_RUNPOWERSHELL=1 ENABLE_PSREMOTING=1 REGISTER_MANIFEST=1 USE_MU=1 ENABLE_MU=1 ADD_PATH=1

This smells like when PowerShell aliased curl and wget to a completely different command, with incompatible arguments.

PowerShell is available on macOS and Linux as well (source on Github: https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell). It may not be as well-integrated with things like system services management, but the language still works well. You can still use all the command line tools you're used to on Linux, of course.

nushell does look interesting, though the lack of a .deb repository does put it pretty low on my to-do list.

Issue #7940 discusses potential improvements to array slicing.

Note: This can be problematic as it prevents upstream commands from running their end {} block. See here. The new clean {} block introduced in PowerShell v7.3 does not suffer from this issue.

Can you give an example of something that PS can do that is built-in for text processing, instead of a proprietary symbolic query language?

https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/blob/master/LICENSE... is the MIT license. (Microsoft supplies debs directly which may reduce the motivation for Debian to do so.)

Oh, heh, also https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/blob/master/docs/bu... the build script is written in PowerShell, so there's a bootstrapping problem :-) (Debian has solved those before of course, but with community sentiment like the above maybe noone is motivated to bother.)

According to https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/issues/19628, the default behaviour is invoked whenever the completion script returns no output. To attempt to do so, I tried exiting the script via returning an empty string, or using the return keyword to exit the script completely, unfortunately with no avail. Is there a technique to achieve what I want, and is there any documentation about it other than the official one? Thank you in advance.
