=head2 glpList

  my $list_name = glpList {
      glBegin( GL_LINES );
      glVertex3f( 0, 0, 0 );
      glVertex3f( 1, 0, 0 );
      glVertex3f( 0, 0, 0 );
      glVertex3f( 0, 1, 0 );
      glVertex3f( 0, 0, 0 );
      glVertex3f( 0, 0, 1 );
      glEnd();
  };

The glpLine function is used to define a block of Perl OpenGL instructions that
should be immediately compiled into a display list.

Returns a new display list name that can be passed to glCallList() later.
