hackvr... um. outputs commands to stdout based on keys pressed inside hackvr,
and inputs the same type of commands.

quick start:
-cd src
-make
-./testit.sh
+You'll need to have the library and headers of libx11 installed for hackvr to build successfully.
+Which usually means you will need the dev version of the libx11 (xlib) package for your distro.
+To get that on debian you might run
+
+ apt-get install libx11-dev
+
+After you have that installed you should be able to do these to get hackvr built:
+
+ cd src
+ make
+A few helper scripts are written in perl and python.
+So you might want to install perl and python if you want to play with them.
+They're pretty nifty.

+You'll have to either enable this using a command sent to hackvr's stdin that
+I don't even remember, or just enable it in config.h make clean then rebuild.
+Be sure to have SPLIT_SCREEN set to 2 while you have RED_AND_BLUE set to 1.
+Otherwise you'll just end up with one camera that is red. Three cameras will
+draw a third view that is also red. (colors of views are picked by modulo two of
+camera number atm)
+
+left eye should have red over it.
+right eye should have blue over it.

+if your glasses are backwards you can either wear them upside down.
+or just flip the value of CAMERA_SEPARATION in config.h before building.
+or fiddle with it using the 'p' and 'l' keys while hackvr is running.
