Using Glslify with shaders

Glslify is quite handy and I am currently using it for our heatmap. Our glslify-enabled shaders are in Shaders/glslify_raw. In order to work with these shaders:

0. Make sure glslify is set up correctly
1. npm install -g glslify to install the CLI command.
2. npm install to install local glslify dependencies
3. Edit the shader in Shaders/glslify_raw.
4. Run preprocess_glslify_shaders.py. This will generate (inlined) shaders and place them under Shaders/glslify_processed. ⚠️ Do not edit the shaders under glslify_processed. They will get overwritten by preprocess_glslify_shaders.py
