Sure, that would be great.

I wanted to be consistent with the rest of the file but I agree it
adds unnecessary noise at the beginning of the file. I've reorganized
the functions definition as you suggested.

Indeed, thanks.

Not using shaders is not a fatal error for the module so I think
msg_Warn should be used.

I think both way are fine, but still I prefer to do:
if (A)
    Destroy(A);
if (B)
    Destroy(B);
A = NULL;
B = NULL;

Instead of:
if (A) {
    Destroy(A);
    A = NULL;
}
if (B) {
...
Direct3DDestroy() uses the former.

> What's shaderPasses value here?
A technique can have several passes, right now we only have only one
pass in the provided shaders but we could have more. For instance the
grayscale shader:
technique Grayscale
{
    pass p1
    {
        PixelShader = compile ps_2_0 grayscale();
    }
}

No, see first line :).

I think it's only needed when declaring a prototype.

Thanks for your feedback.
