  30.      ppppaaaattttcccchhhhpppprrrreeeecccciiiissssiiiioooonnnn, and ppppaaaattttcccchhhhccccuuuurrrrvvvveeeessss which are defined earlier.  The control
  31.      points _g_e_o_m_x, _g_e_o_m_y, _g_e_o_m_z _g_e_o_m_w determine the shape of the patch.
  32.  
  33.      The patch is drawn as a web of curve segments.  Each curve segment is
  34.      approximated by a sequence of straight lines.  All lines use the current
  35.      linestyle, which is reset prior to the first line of each curve segment,
  36.      and continues through subsequent lines in each curve segment.  Other line
  37.      modes, including depthcueing, line width, and line antialiasing, also
  38.      apply to the lines generated by ppppaaaattttcccchhhh.
