"journal of graphics tools" code repository

This is a repository of code developed and some supplemental material for articles in the journal of graphics tools (JGT), as of Volume 14 known as the "journal of graphics, gpu, & game tools" and Volume 16 on as the "Journal of Graphics Tools." N.b., this journal's title is normally not capitalized, though Taylor & Francis do so on their web pages.
