glium-types

this is a crate designed to include all the things you need to easly work with glium. it includes:

• float, interger, unsigned interger with both regular and double vector variants for 2-4 dimesnions
• square matrices and double square matrices for 2-4 dimensions
• quaternions and double quaternions
• vertex types: vertices, normals, vertex colours and texturecoords.

thats all the uniform types supported by glium! (excluding ones already present in glium e.g textures)

and to reduce boilerplate it also includes:

• mesh macro
• a premade vertex shader
• 3d drawing parameters
• debug teapot
