NAME

       coin_shaders - Shaders in Coin Coin 2.5 added support for shaders. The main nodes used are
       SoShaderProgram, SoVertexShader, SoFragmentShader, and SoGeometryShader. A typical scene
       graph with shaders will look something like this:

       Separator {
         ShaderProgram {
           shaderObject [
             VertexShader {
               sourceProgram "myvertexshader.glsl"
               parameter [
                 ShaderParameter1f { name "myvertexparam" value 1.0 }
               ]
             }
             FragmentShader {
               sourceProgram "myfragmentshader.glsl"
               parameter [
                 ShaderParameter1f { name "myfragmentparam" value 2.0 }
               ]
             }
           ]
         }
         Cube { }
       }

       This will render the Cube with the vertex and fragment shaders specified in
       myvertexshader.glsl and myfragmentshader.glsl. Coin also supports ARB shaders and Cg
       shaders (if the Cg library is installed). However, we recommend using GLSL since we will
       focus mostly on support this shader language.

       Coin defines some named parameters that can be added by the application programmer, and
       which will be automatically updated by Coin while traversing the scene graph.

       • coin_texunit[n]_model - Set to 0 when texturing is disabled, and to
         SoTextureImageElement::Model if there's a current texture on the state for unit n.
       • coin_light_model - Set to 1 for PHONG, 0 for BASE_COLOR lighting.
       • coin_two_sided_lighting - Set to 1 for two-sided, 0 for normal
       Example scene graph that renders per-fragment OpenGL Phong lighting for one light source.
       The shaders assume the first light source is a directional light. This is the case if you
       open the file in a standard examiner viewer.
       The iv-file:

           pf = 0.0;
         else
           pf = pow(nDotHV, gl_FrontMaterial.shininess);

         ambient += gl_LightSource[i].ambient;
         diffuse += gl_LightSource[i].diffuse * nDotVP;
         specular += gl_LightSource[i].specular * pf;
