<para>
The name stack is used during selection mode to allow sets of rendering
commands to be uniquely identified.
It consists of an ordered set of unsigned integers.
<function>glInitNames</function> causes the name stack to be initialized to its default empty state.
</para>
<para>
The name stack is always empty while the render mode is not <constant>GL_SELECT</constant>.
Calls to <function>glInitNames</function> while the render mode is not <constant>GL_SELECT</constant> are ignored.
