Use <tt>gluBeginTrim</tt> to mark the beginning of a trimming loop, and <tt>gluEndTrim</tt> to
mark the end of a trimming loop. A trimming loop is a set of oriented curve segments (forming a closed curve) that
define boundaries of a NURBS surface. You include these trimming loops in the definition of a NURBS surface, between
calls to <a href="gluBeginSurface.3G.xml"><tt>gluBeginSurface</tt></a> and <a href="gluBeginSurface.3G.xml"><tt>gluEndSurface</tt></a>.
</p><p>
The definition for a NURBS surface can contain many trimming loops. For example, if you wrote a definition for a NURBS
surface that resembled a rectangle with a hole punched out, the definition would contain two trimming loops. One loop
would define the outer edge of the rectangle; the other would define the hole punched out of the rectangle. The
definitions of each of these trimming loops would be bracketed by a
<tt>gluBeginTrim</tt>/<tt>gluEndTrim</tt> pair.
</p><p>
The definition of a single closed trimming loop can consist of multiple curve segments, each described as a piecewise
linear curve (see <a href="gluPwlCurve.3G.xml">gluPwlCurve</a>) or as a single NURBS curve (see <a href="gluNurbsCurve.3G.xml"><tt>gluNurbsCurve</tt></a>), or as a
combination of both in any order. The only library calls that can appear in a trimming loop definition (between the
calls to <tt>gluBeginTrim</tt> and <tt>gluEndTrim</tt>) are <a href="gluPwlCurve.3G.xml"><tt>gluPwlCurve</tt></a> and <a href="gluNurbsCurve.3G.xml"><tt>gluNurbsCurve</tt></a>.
</p><p>
The area of the NURBS surface that is displayed is the region in the domain to the left of the trimming curve as the
curve parameter increases. Thus, the retained region of the NURBS surface is inside a counterclockwise trimming loop
and outside a clockwise trimming loop. For the rectangle mentioned earlier, the trimming loop for the outer edge of the
rectangle runs counterclockwise, while the trimming loop for the punched-out hole runs clockwise.
</p><p>
If you use more than one curve to define a single trimming loop, the curve segments must form a closed loop (that is,
the endpoint of each curve must be the starting point of the next curve, and the endpoint of the final curve must be
the starting point of the first curve). If the endpoints of the curve are sufficiently close together but not exactly
coincident, they will be coerced to match. If the endpoints are not sufficiently close, an error results (see <a href="gluNurbsCallback.3G.xml"><tt>gluNurbsCallback</tt></a>).
</p><p>
If a trimming loop definition contains multiple curves, the direction of the curves must be consistent (that is, the
inside must be to the left of all of the curves). Nested trimming loops are legal as long as the curve orientations
alternate correctly. If trimming curves are self-intersecting, or intersect one another, an error results.
</p><p>
If no trimming information is given for a NURBS surface, the entire surface is drawn.
