If <constant>GL_TRUE</constant>, pixels will be consumed by the histogramming

<para>
When <constant>GL_HISTOGRAM</constant> is enabled, RGBA color components are converted to
histogram table indices by clamping to the range [0,1], multiplying by
the width of the histogram table, and rounding to the nearest integer.
The table entries selected by the RGBA indices are then incremented.
(If the internal format of the histogram table includes luminance, then
the index derived from the R color component determines the luminance
table entry to be incremented.) If a histogram table entry is incremented
beyond its maximum value, then its value becomes undefined. (This is
not an error.)
</para>
<para>
Histogramming is performed only for RGBA pixels (though these may
be specified originally as color indices and converted to RGBA by
index table lookup).
Histogramming is enabled with <citerefentry><refentrytitle>glEnable</refentrytitle></citerefentry> and disabled with <citerefentry><refentrytitle>glDisable</refentrytitle></citerefentry>.
</para>
<para>
When <parameter>target</parameter> is <constant>GL_HISTOGRAM</constant>, <function>glHistogram</function> redefines the current
histogram table to have <parameter>width</parameter> entries of the format specified by
<parameter>internalformat</parameter>.
The entries are indexed 0 through
<inlineequation><mml:math>
<!-- eqn: width - 1:-->
<mml:mrow>
<mml:mi mathvariant="italic">width</mml:mi>
<mml:mo>-</mml:mo>
<mml:mn>1</mml:mn>
</mml:mrow>
</mml:math></inlineequation>,
and
all entries are initialized to zero.
The values in the previous histogram table, if any, are lost.
If <parameter>sink</parameter> is <constant>GL_TRUE</constant>, then pixels are discarded after histogramming;
no further processing of the pixels takes place, and no drawing,
texture loading, or pixel readback will result.
</para>
<para>
When <parameter>target</parameter> is <constant>GL_PROXY_HISTOGRAM</constant>, <function>glHistogram</function> computes all
state information as if the histogram table were to be redefined,
but does not actually define the new table.
If the requested histogram table is too large to be supported, then the
state information will be set to zero.
This provides a way to determine if a histogram table with the given
parameters can be supported.
