You may want to consult these documents as you develop shaders for the GPU:
- OpenGL Shading Language (PDF) provides an overview of shaders and a complete reference to the language.
- OpenGL Shading Language (GLSl) Quick Reference Guide (PDF) is a two-page list of symbols that includes cross-references to the full specification.
The following OpenGL specifications define the extensions that support GPU programs:
- GL_EXT_geometry_shader4 is for generating primitives.
- GL_ARB_fragment_program is for processing fragments.
- GL_ARB_vertex_program is for processing vertices.
