C SPECIFICATION
     GLuint glGenLists(	GLsizei	range )


PARAMETERS
     range  Specifies the number of contiguous empty display lists to be

DESCRIPTION
     glGenLists	has one	argument, range.  It returns an	integer	n such that
     range contiguous empty display lists, named n, n+1, ..., n+range -1, are
     created.  If range	is zero, if there is no	group of range contiguous
     names available, or if any	error is generated, no display lists are
     generated,	and zero is returned.

ERRORS

     GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if glGenLists is	executed between the
     execution of glBegin and the corresponding	execution of glEnd.
