==== Description: ====
This is NOT another Rubic's Cube. It's a whole new kind of puzzle...a slider,
not a twister.  A 3x3x3 arrangement of cubelets with the center one missing
allows sliding permutations. After a randomization, the goal is to restore the
cube to its original configuration based on color and alphabetic hints. When
completed, the 26 letters of the english alphabet can be seen in order on the
outside layer of cubelets.

Uses fully modern OpenGL methods in C++ using shaders and uniforms so as to
achieve version 3.3 core profile contexts in a way that is sufficiently
mainstream that it easily compiles and runs on both Linux and Mac OS-X
systems.  This code serves as a testbed for learning the complexities of
modern OpenGL so that transparency has, to a certain extent, preempted
elegance.  

Absolutely no coding efforts or compromises have been made to accomodate other
proprietary or esoteric operating systems except for learning how to compile
on OS-X.



==== Other Software Required: ====

GLEW: sourceforge.net

===================================
Two binary executables are included.
One for OSX (statically linked) that should run on any normally configured
Mac, including a 2009 mini and 2009 MacBook.  And another for a 64-bit linux
system with the requisite relocatable libraries.
