					INTEGER*4 type,
					CHARACTER*8 buffer )


     PARAMETERS
	  size	  Specifies the	maximum	number of values that can be
		  written into buffer.

	  type	  Specifies a symbolic constant	that describes the
		  information that will	be returned for	each vertex.

		  GL_4D_COLOR_TEXTURE are accepted.

	  buffer  Returns the feedback data.

     DESCRIPTION
	  The fglFeedbackBuffer	function controls feedback.  Feedback,
	  like selection, is a GL mode.	 The mode is selected by
	  calling fglRenderMode	with GL_FEEDBACK.  When	the GL is in
	  feedback mode, no pixels are produced	by rasterization.
	  Instead, information about primitives	that would have	been
	  rasterized is	fed back to the	application using the GL.

	  fglFeedbackBuffer has	three arguments:  buffer is a pointer
	  to an	array of floating-point	values into which feedback
	  information is placed.  size indicates the size of the
	  array.  type is a symbolic constant describing the
	  information that is fed back for each	vertex.
	  fglFeedbackBuffer must be issued before feedback mode	is
	  enabled (by calling fglRenderMode with argument
	  GL_FEEDBACK).	 Setting GL_FEEDBACK without establishing the
	  feedback buffer, or calling fglFeedbackBuffer	while the GL
	  is in	feedback mode, is an error.

	  When fglRenderMode is	called while in	feedback mode, it
	  returns the number of	entries	placed in the feedback array,
	  and resets the feedback array	pointer	to the base of the
	  feedback buffer. The returned	value never exceeds size. If
	  the feedback data required more room than was	available in
	  buffer, fglRenderMode	returns	a negative value.  To take the
	  GL out of feedback mode, call	fglRenderMode with a parameter
	  value	other than GL_FEEDBACK.

	  While	in feedback mode, each primitive, bitmap, or pixel
	  rectangle that would be rasterized generates a block of
	  values that are copied into the feedback array.  If doing so
	  would	cause the number of entries to exceed the maximum, the
	  block	is partially written so	as to fill the array (if there
	  is any room left at all), and	an overflow flag is set.  Each
	  block	begins with a code indicating the primitive type,
	  followed by values that describe the primitive's vertices
	  and associated data.	Entries	are also written for bitmaps
	  and pixel rectangles.	 Feedback occurs after polygon culling
	  and fglPolygonMode interpretation of polygons	has taken
	  place, so polygons that are culled are not returned in the
	  feedback buffer.  It can also	occur after polygons with more
	  than three edges are broken up into triangles, if the	GL
	  implementation renders polygons by performing	this
	  decomposition.

	  The fglPassThrough command can be used to insert a marker
	  into the feedback buffer.  See fglPassThrough.

	  Following is the grammar for the blocks of values written
	  into the feedback buffer.  Each primitive is indicated with
	  a unique identifying value followed by some number of
	  vertices.  Polygon entries include an	integer	value
	  indicating how many vertices follow.	A vertex is fed	back
	  as some number of floating-point values, as determined by
	  type.	 Colors	are fed	back as	four values in RGBA mode and
	  one value in color index mode.

	       feedbackList <- feedbackItem feedbackList |
	       feedbackItem

	       feedbackItem <- point | lineSegment | polygon | bitmap
	       | pixelRectangle	| passThru

	       point <-	GL_POINT_TOKEN vertex

	       lineSegment <- GL_LINE_TOKEN vertex vertex |
	       GL_LINE_RESET_TOKEN vertex vertex

	       polygon <- GL_POLYGON_TOKEN n polySpec

	       polySpec	<- polySpec vertex | vertex vertex vertex

	       bitmap <- GL_BITMAP_TOKEN vertex

	       pixelRectangle <- GL_DRAW_PIXEL_TOKEN vertex |
	       GL_COPY_PIXEL_TOKEN vertex

	       passThru	<- GL_PASS_THROUGH_TOKEN value

	       vertex <- 2d | 3d | 3dColor | 3dColorTexture |
	       4dColorTexture

	       2d <- value value
	       3d <- value value value

	       3dColor	<- value value value color

	       3dColorTexture <- value value value color tex

	       4dColorTexture <- value value value value color tex

	       color <-	rgba | index

	       rgba <- value value value value

	       index <-	value

	       tex <- value value value	value


	  value	is a floating-point number, and	n is a floating-point
	  integer giving the number of vertices	in the polygon.
	  GL_POINT_TOKEN, GL_LINE_TOKEN, GL_LINE_RESET_TOKEN,
	  GL_POLYGON_TOKEN, GL_BITMAP_TOKEN, GL_DRAW_PIXEL_TOKEN,
	  GL_COPY_PIXEL_TOKEN and GL_PASS_THROUGH_TOKEN	are symbolic
	  floating-point constants.  GL_LINE_RESET_TOKEN is returned
	  whenever the line stipple pattern is reset.  The data
	  returned as a	vertex depends on the feedback type.

	  The following	table gives the	correspondence between type
	  and the number of values per vertex.	k is 1 in color	index
	  mode and 4 in	RGBA mode.

	  Feedback vertex coordinates are in window coordinates,
	  except w, which is in	clip coordinates.  Feedback colors are
	  lighted, if lighting is enabled.  Feedback texture
	  coordinates are generated, if	texture	coordinate generation
	  is enabled.  They are	always transformed by the texture
	  matrix.

     NOTES
	  fglFeedbackBuffer, when used in a display list, is not
	  compiled into	the display list but is	executed immediately.

     ERRORS
	  GL_INVALID_ENUM is generated if type is not an accepted
	  value.

	  GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated	if size	is negative.

	  GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if fglFeedbackBuffer is
	  called while the render mode is GL_FEEDBACK, or if
	  fglRenderMode	is called with argument	GL_FEEDBACK before
	  fglFeedbackBuffer is called at least once.

	  GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if fglFeedbackBuffer is
	  executed between the execution of fglBegin and the
	  corresponding	execution of fglEnd.
