-\section{Swizzle Operators}
+\section{Swizzling}
 
-Shader languages like GLSL often feature so-called swizzle operators, which may be used to freely select and arrange a vector's components. For example, \verb|variable.x|, \verb|variable.xzy| and \verb|variable.zxyy| respectively form a scalar, a 3D vector and a 4D vector.  The result of a swizzle expression in GLSL can be either an R-value or an L-value. Swizzle expressions can be written with characters from exactly one of \verb|xyzw| (usually for positions), \verb|rgba| (usually for colors), or \verb|stpq| (usually for texture coordinates).

 \subsection{Default C++98 Implementation}
 
-When compiling GLM as C++98, R-value swizzle operators are simulated through member functions of each vector type.

 \subsection{Anonymous Union Member Implementation}
 
-Visual C++ supports, as a \emph{non-standard language extension}, anonymous \verb|struct|s in \verb|union|s. This enables a very powerful implementation of swizzle operators on Windows, which both allows L-value swizzle operators and makes the syntax for it closer to GLSL's.  This implementation of the swizzle operators is only enabled when the language extension is enabled and \verb|GLM_SWIZZLE| is defined.
