NAME
       glGenLists - generate a contiguous set of empty display lists


C SPECIFICATION
       GLuint glGenLists( GLsizei range )


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

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 0, if there is no group of range con-tiguous contiguous
       tiguous  names  available,  or  if  any  error is generated, no display lists are generated, and 0 is
       returned.

ERRORS
       GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated if range is negative.

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