.SH PARAMETERS
.TP \w'\f2winX\fP\ \f2winY\fP\ \f2winZ\fP\ \ 'u 
\f2winX\fP, \f2winY\fP, \f2winZ\fP
Specify the window coordinates to be mapped.
.TP
\f2model\fP
Specifies the modelview matrix (as from a \f3glGetDoublev\fP call).
.TP
\f2proj\fP
Specifies the projection matrix (as from a \f3glGetDoublev\fP call).
.TP
\f2view\fP
Specifies the viewport (as from a \f3glGetIntegerv\fP call).
.TP
\f2objX\fP, \f2objY\fP, \f2objZ\fP
Returns the computed object coordinates.
.SH DESCRIPTION
\%\f3gluUnProject\fP maps the specified window coordinates into object 
coordinates using \f2model\fP, \f2proj\fP, and \f2view\fP.
The result is stored in \f2objX\fP, \f2objY\fP, and \f2objZ\fP. A return value of 
\%\f3GL_TRUE\fP indicates success; a return value of \%\f3GL_FALSE\fP
indicates failure.
.P
To compute the coordinates (\f2objX\fP, \f2objY\fP, and \f2objZ\fP),
\%\f3gluUnProject\fP multiplies the normalized device coordinates by the inverse of
\f2model\fP*\f2proj\fP as follows:

$INV()$ denotes matrix inversion. 
W is an unused variable, included for consistent matrix notation.
