NAME
     stereo - configures the framebuffer for stereoscopic viewing

FORTRAN 77 SPECIFICATION
     subroutine stereo

PARAMETERS
     none

DESCRIPTION
     stereo invokes stereoscopic buffer mode.  When stereo is selected in
     conjunction with single, two color buffers (left and right) are
     allocated.  When stereo is selected in conjunction with double, four
     color buffers (front-left, front-right, back-left, and back-right) are
     allocated.

     stereo does not take effect until gconfi is called.  If neither monobu
     nor stereo is called, gconfi defaults to monoscopic buffer mode.

SEE ALSO
     gconfi, monobu, setmon(1G)

NOTES
     stereo configures the framebuffer to store left and right images, but it
     does not cause these images to be presented correctly to the viewer.
     setmon(1G) must be called to display the stereo images correctly.

     When the framebuffer is not configured for stereo display, the left
     buffer is displayed.

     IRIS-4D G, GT, GTX, VGX, and VGXT models, the Personal Iris, Indy, Indigo
     Entry, XL, XS, XS24, XZ, Elan and Extreme systems do not support stereo.
