+.SH PARAMETERS
+_phead(_param1)
+Specifies the NURBS object (created with _cmnd(NewNurbsRenderer)).
+_phead(_param2)
+Specifies the number of points on the curve.
+_phead(_param3)
+Specifies an array containing the curve points.
+_phead(_param4)
+Specifies the offset (a number of single-precision floating-point values)
+between points on the curve.
+_phead(_param5)
+Specifies the type of curve.
+Must be either _gluconst(MAP1_TRIM_2) or _gluconst(MAP1_TRIM_3).
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+_cmnd describes a piecewise linear trimming curve for a NURBS surface.
+A piecewise linear curve consists of a list of
+coordinates of points in the parameter space for the
+NURBS surface to be trimmed. These points are connected
+with line segments to form a curve. If the curve is
+an approximation to a curve that is not piecewise linear,
+the points should be close enough in parameter space that the
+resulting path appears curved at the resolution used in the application.
+.P
+If _param5 is
+_gluconst(MAP1_TRIM_2), then it describes a curve in two-dimensional (\f2u\fP
+and \f2v\fP) parameter space. If it is _gluconst(MAP1_TRIM_3), then it
+describes a curve in two-dimensional homogeneous (\f2u\fP, \f2v\fP,
+and \f2w\fP) parameter space.
+See the _cmnd(BeginTrim) reference page for more information
+about trimming curves.
+.SH NOTES
+To describe a trim curve that closely follows the contours of a NURBS
+surface, call _cmnd(NurbsCurve).
