  29.      ffffggggllllDDDDrrrraaaawwwwAAAArrrrrrrraaaayyyyssss specifies multiple geometric primitives with very few
  30.      subroutine calls. Instead of calling a GL procedure to pass each
  31.      individual vertex, normal, texture coordinate, edge flag, or color, you
  32.      can prespecify separate arrays of vertexes, normals, and colors and use
  33.      them to construct a sequence of primitives with a single call to
  34.      ffffggggllllDDDDrrrraaaawwwwAAAArrrrrrrraaaayyyyssss.
  35.  
  36.      When ffffggggllllDDDDrrrraaaawwwwAAAArrrrrrrraaaayyyyssss is called, it uses _c_o_u_n_t sequential elements from each
  37.      enabled array to construct a sequence of geometric primitives, beginning
  38.      with element _f_i_r_s_t. _m_o_d_e specifies what kind of primitives are
  39.      constructed, and how the array elements construct those primitives. If
  40.      GGGGLLLL____VVVVEEEERRRRTTTTEEEEXXXX____AAAARRRRRRRRAAAAYYYY is not enabled, no geometric primitives are generated.
  41.  
  42.      Vertex attributes that are modified by ffffggggllllDDDDrrrraaaawwwwAAAArrrrrrrraaaayyyyssss have an unspecified
  43.      value after ffffggggllllDDDDrrrraaaawwwwAAAArrrrrrrraaaayyyyssss returns. For example, if GGGGLLLL____CCCCOOOOLLLLOOOORRRR____AAAARRRRRRRRAAAAYYYY is
  44.      enabled, the value of the current color is undefined after ffffggggllllDDDDrrrraaaawwwwAAAArrrrrrrraaaayyyyssss
  45.      executes. Attributes that aren't modified remain well defined.

  48.      ffffggggllllDDDDrrrraaaawwwwAAAArrrrrrrraaaayyyyssss is available only if the GL version is 1.1 or greater.
  49.  
  50.      ffffggggllllDDDDrrrraaaawwwwAAAArrrrrrrraaaayyyyssss is included in display lists. If ffffggggllllDDDDrrrraaaawwwwAAAArrrrrrrraaaayyyyssss is entered
  51.      into a display list, the necessary array data (determined by the array
  52.      pointers and enables) is also entered into the display list. Because the
  53.      array pointers and enables are client-side state, their values affect
  54.      display lists when the lists are created, not when the lists are
  55.      executed.
