        <para>
            Multisampling samples a pixel multiple times at various
            implementation-dependent subpixel locations to generate antialiasing
            effects.  Multisampling transparently antialiases points, lines, polygons,
            and images if it is enabled.
        </para>
        <para>
            <parameter>value</parameter> is used in constructing a temporary mask used in determining which
            samples will be used in resolving the final fragment color.  This mask is
            bitwise-anded with the coverage mask generated from the multisampling
            computation.  If the <parameter>invert</parameter> flag is set, the temporary mask is inverted
            (all bits flipped) and then the bitwise-and is computed.
        </para>
        <para>
            If an implementation does not have any multisample buffers available, or
            multisampling is disabled, rasterization occurs with only a single sample
            computing a pixel's final RGB color.
        </para>
        <para>
            Provided an implementation supports multisample buffers, and multisampling
            is enabled, then a pixel's final color is generated by combining several
            samples per pixel.  Each sample contains color, depth, and stencil
            information, allowing those operations to be performed on each sample.
