ff1.0 is not supported, because it works on the cpu, and it is not really 
possible to make it work with a decent speed in opengl that fluxus uses.

these osx ffgl plugins are not cross platform, since they are based on the 
coreimage filters of osx. on the other hand it's quite convinient and 
easy to achieve the same effects with them, as you would do with shaders.

you can create a vector of pixel-primitives or one pixel-primitive with 
multiple textures attached to it. the examples ffgl.scm and 
pixels-feedback.scm show how to do the latter. basically you create a 
pixel-primitive with more textures then select which one you would like to 
display and render into.
