the editor; by opening examples.sln and selecting "Build" -> "Build Solution"
from the menu.
Using the editor
----------------
The GNU Rocket editor is laid out like a music-tracker; tracks (or columns)
and rows. Each track represents a separate "variable" in the demo, over the
entire time-domain of the demo. Each row represents a specific point in time.
Each row consists of a set of key-frames, which are interpolated over time
according to their interpolation modes.
Keyboard shortcuts
-------------------
Some of the GNU Rocket editor's features are available through the menu and
some keyboard shortcut. Here's a list of the supported keyboard shortcuts:
Up/Down/Left/Right Move cursor
PgUp/PgDn Move cursor 16 rows up/down
Home/End Move cursor to begining/end
Ctrl+Left/Right Move track
Enter Enter key-frame value

Space Pause/Resume demo
Shift+Up/Down/Left/Right Select
Ctrl+C Copy
Ctrl+V Paste
