NAME
       glePolyCylinder - Draw polycylinder, specified as a polyline.

SYNTAX
       void glePolyCylinder(int npoints,
			    gleDouble point_array[][3],
			    float color_array[][3],
			    gleDouble radius);

ARGUMENTS
       npoints	 numpoints in poly-line

       point_array
		 polyline vertices

       color_array
		 colors at polyline verts

       radius	 cylinder radius

DESCRIPTION
       Draw polycylinder, specified as a polyline.

       Note  that  neither the very first segment, nor the very last segment are drawn. The first and last segments serve only to define the angle
       of the join at the very ends of the polyline. Thus, to draw one segment, three must be specified. To draw two segments, four must be speci-
       fied, etc.

       The  color array may be NULL. If NULL, the current color is used. If not NULL, the glColor3f() routine is used to set the color; therefore,
       specifying the glColorMaterial() subroutine before this primitive can be used to set diffuse, specular, ambient, etc. colors.

       By default, the cross-section of the cylinder is drawn as a 20-sided polygon.  This number can be changed using the  gleSetNumSides()  rou-
       tine.
