Is it possible to read back buffers/textures on the CPU?

Thank you for work on this library. It's great and has a lot of potential :)

I wish to know if there's a way to read back data sent to the gpu. Is it possible to have the shader draw something to a buffer, read it back on the cpu and for example save it to an image? I've looked at the framebuffer examples but i don't really get how you can get data out of them.

Thanks for your interest in posh!

I think this is a missing feature as of now. We basically need the ability to go from a texture back to an image (i.e., glGetTexImage).

I'll look into implementing this in the next couple of weeks.

Appreciate it! It would help with my use case of post processing images in batch on the gpu, thanks
