            <function>glDrawPixels</function> reads pixel data from memory and writes it into the frame buffer
            relative to the current raster position, provided that the raster
            position is valid.  Use
            <citerefentry><refentrytitle>glRasterPos</refentrytitle></citerefentry> or <citerefentry><refentrytitle>glWindowPos</refentrytitle></citerefentry> to set the current raster position; use
            <citerefentry><refentrytitle>glGet</refentrytitle></citerefentry> with argument <constant>GL_CURRENT_RASTER_POSITION_VALID</constant>
            to determine if the specified raster position is valid, and
            <citerefentry><refentrytitle>glGet</refentrytitle></citerefentry> with argument <constant>GL_CURRENT_RASTER_POSITION</constant>
            to query the raster position.

        <para>
            Several parameters define the encoding of pixel data in memory
            and control the processing of the pixel data
            before it is placed in the frame buffer.
            These parameters are set with four commands:
            <citerefentry><refentrytitle>glPixelStore</refentrytitle></citerefentry>,
            <citerefentry><refentrytitle>glPixelTransfer</refentrytitle></citerefentry>,
            <citerefentry><refentrytitle>glPixelMap</refentrytitle></citerefentry>, and <citerefentry><refentrytitle>glPixelZoom</refentrytitle></citerefentry>.
            This reference page describes the effects on <function>glDrawPixels</function> of many,
            but not all, of the parameters specified by these four commands.
        </para>
        <para>
            Data is read from <parameter>data</parameter> as a sequence of signed or unsigned bytes,
            signed or unsigned shorts, signed or unsigned integers, or
            single-precision floating-point values, depending on <parameter>type</parameter>.
            When <parameter>type</parameter> is one of <constant>GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE</constant>, <constant>GL_BYTE</constant>,
            <constant>GL_UNSIGNED_SHORT</constant>, <constant>GL_SHORT</constant>, <constant>GL_UNSIGNED_INT</constant>,
            <constant>GL_INT</constant>, or <constant>GL_FLOAT</constant> each of these bytes, shorts, integers, or
            floating-point values is interpreted as one color or depth component, or
            one index, depending on <parameter>format</parameter>.
            When <parameter>type</parameter> is one of <constant>GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE_3_3_2</constant>,
            <constant>GL_UNSIGNED_SHORT_5_6_5</constant>, <constant>GL_UNSIGNED_SHORT_4_4_4_4</constant>,
            <constant>GL_UNSIGNED_SHORT_5_5_5_1</constant>, <constant>GL_UNSIGNED_INT_8_8_8_8</constant>, or
            <constant>GL_UNSIGNED_INT_10_10_10_2</constant>, each unsigned value is interpreted as
            containing all the components for a single pixel, with the color
            components arranged according to <parameter>format</parameter>.
            When <parameter>type</parameter> is one of <constant>GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE_2_3_3_REV</constant>,
            <constant>GL_UNSIGNED_SHORT_5_6_5_REV</constant>, <constant>GL_UNSIGNED_SHORT_4_4_4_4_REV</constant>,
            <constant>GL_UNSIGNED_SHORT_1_5_5_5_REV</constant>, <constant>GL_UNSIGNED_INT_8_8_8_8_REV</constant>, or
            <constant>GL_UNSIGNED_INT_2_10_10_10_REV</constant>, each unsigned value is interpreted
            as containing all color components, specified by <parameter>format</parameter>, for a single
            pixel in a reversed order. Indices are always treated individually.
            Color components are treated as groups of one, two, three, or four
            values, again based on <parameter>format</parameter>. Both individual indices and groups of
            components are referred to as pixels.
            If <parameter>type</parameter> is <constant>GL_BITMAP</constant>, the data must be unsigned bytes, and
            <parameter>format</parameter> must be either <constant>GL_COLOR_INDEX</constant> or <constant>GL_STENCIL_INDEX</constant>.
            Each unsigned byte is treated as eight 1-bit pixels, with bit ordering
            determined by <constant>GL_UNPACK_LSB_FIRST</constant> (see <citerefentry><refentrytitle>glPixelStore</refentrytitle></citerefentry>).

            pixels are read from memory,
            starting at location <parameter>data</parameter>.
            By default, these pixels are taken from adjacent memory locations,
            except that after all <parameter>width</parameter> pixels are read,
            the read pointer is advanced to the next four-byte boundary.
            The four-byte row alignment is specified by <citerefentry><refentrytitle>glPixelStore</refentrytitle></citerefentry> with
            argument <constant>GL_UNPACK_ALIGNMENT</constant>,
            and it can be set to one, two, four, or eight bytes.
            Other pixel store parameters specify different read pointer advancements,
            both before the first pixel is read
            and after all <parameter>width</parameter> pixels are read.
            See the <citerefentry><refentrytitle>glPixelStore</refentrytitle></citerefentry> reference page for details on these options.

            pixels that are read from memory are
            each operated on in the same way,
            based on the values of several parameters specified by <citerefentry><refentrytitle>glPixelTransfer</refentrytitle></citerefentry>
            and <citerefentry><refentrytitle>glPixelMap</refentrytitle></citerefentry>.
            The details of these operations,
            as well as the target buffer into which the pixels are drawn,
            are specific to the format of the pixels,
            as specified by <parameter>format</parameter>.
            <parameter>format</parameter> can assume one of 13 symbolic values:

                        Each pixel is a single value,
                        a color index.
                        It is converted to fixed-point format,
                        with an unspecified number of bits to the right of the binary point,
                        regardless of the memory data type.
                        Floating-point values convert to true fixed-point values.
                        Signed and unsigned integer data is converted with all fraction bits
                        set to 0.
                        Bitmap data convert to either 0 or 1.

                    <para>
                        Each fixed-point index is then shifted left by <constant>GL_INDEX_SHIFT</constant> bits
                        and added to <constant>GL_INDEX_OFFSET</constant>.
                        If <constant>GL_INDEX_SHIFT</constant> is negative,
                        the shift is to the right.
                        In either case, zero bits fill otherwise unspecified bit locations in the
                        result.

                    <para>
                        If the GL is in RGBA mode,
                        the resulting index is converted to an RGBA pixel
                        with the help of the <constant>GL_PIXEL_MAP_I_TO_R</constant>,

                        the index is replaced with the value that it references in lookup table
                        <constant>GL_PIXEL_MAP_I_TO_I</constant>.
                        Whether the lookup replacement of the index is done or not,
                        the integer part of the index is then ANDed with

                        alpha; for <constant>GL_BGRA</constant> the order is blue, green, red and then alpha.
                        Floating-point values are converted directly to an internal floating-point
                        format with unspecified precision.

                        Unsigned integer data is mapped similarly:
                        The largest integer value maps to 1.0,
                        and 0 maps to 0.0.
