+.SH PARAMETERS
+_phead(_param1)
+Specifies the tessellation object (created with _cmnd(NewTess)).
+_phead(_param2)
+Specifies the first component of the normal.
+_phead(_param3)
+Specifies the second component of the normal.
+_phead(_param4)
+Specifies the third component of the normal.
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+_cmnd describes a normal for a polygon that the program is defining.
+All input data will be projected onto a plane perpendicular to one of
+the three coordinate axes before tessellation and all output triangles
+will be oriented CCW with
+respect to the normal (CW orientation can be obtained by reversing the
+sign of the supplied normal). For example, if you know that all polygons
+lie in the x-y plane, call _cmnd(TessNormal)(tess, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0)
+before rendering any polygons.
+.P
+If the supplied normal is (0.0, 0.0, 0.0) (the initial value), the normal is
+determined as follows. The direction of the normal, up to its sign, is
+found by fitting a plane to the vertices, without regard to how the
+vertices are connected. It is expected that the input data lies approximately
+in the plane; otherwise, projection perpendicular to one of the three
+coordinate axes may substantially change the geometry. The sign of the
+normal is chosen so that the sum of the signed areas of all input
+contours is nonnegative (where a CCW contour has positive area).
+.P
+The supplied normal persists until it is changed by another call to
+_cmnd(TessNormal).
