NAME
     glTranslated, glTranslatef	- multiply the current matrix by a translation
     matrix


C SPECIFICATION
     void glTranslated(	GLdouble x,
			GLdouble y,
			GLdouble z )
     void glTranslatef(	GLfloat	x,
			GLfloat	y,
			GLfloat	z )


PARAMETERS
     x,	y, z
	    Specify the	x, y, and z coordinates	of a translation vector.


DESCRIPTION
     glTranslate moves the coordinate system origin to the point specified by
     (x,y,z).  The translation vector is used to compute a 4x4 translation
     matrix:

			      (	1    0	  0    x   )
			      |			   |
			      |	0    1	  0    y   |
			      |	0    0	  1    z   |
			      |			   |
			      (	0    0	  0    1   )
     The current matrix	(see glMatrixMode) is multiplied by this translation
     matrix, with the product replacing	the current matrix.  That is, if M is
     the current matrix	and T is the translation matrix, then M	is replaced
     with M o T.

     If	the matrix mode	is either GL_MODELVIEW or GL_PROJECTION, all objects
     drawn after glTranslate is	called are translated.	Use glPushMatrix and
     glPopMatrix to save and restore the untranslated coordinate system.

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