NAME
       gluBeginCurve - delimit a NURBS curve definition

C SPECIFICATION
       void gluBeginCurve(GLUnurbs* nurb);

C SPECIFICATION
       void gluEndCurve(GLUnurbs* nurb);

PARAMETERS
       nurb
	   Specifies the NURBS object (created with gluNewNurbsRenderer()).

DESCRIPTION
       Use gluBeginCurve to mark the beginning of a NURBS curve definition. After calling gluBeginCurve, make one or more calls to gluNurbsCurve()
       to define the attributes of the curve. Exactly one of the calls to gluNurbsCurve() must have a curve type of GLU_MAP1_VERTEX_3 or
       GLU_MAP1_VERTEX_4. To mark the end of the NURBS curve definition, call gluEndCurve().

       GL evaluators are used to render the NURBS curve as a series of line segments. Evaluator state is preserved during rendering with
       glPushAttrib()(GLU_EVAL_BIT) and glPopAttrib()(). See the glPushAttrib() reference page for details on exactly what state these calls
       preserve.

EXAMPLE
       The following commands render a textured NURBS curve with normals; texture coordinates and normals are also specified as NURBS curves:

	   gluBeginCurve(nobj);
	      gluNurbsCurve(nobj, ..., GL_MAP1_TEXTURE_COORD_2);
	      gluNurbsCurve(nobj, ..., GL_MAP1_NORMAL);
	      gluNurbsCurve(nobj, ..., GL_MAP1_VERTEX_4);
	   gluEndCurve(nobj);
