	/** Defines the functionality of a 3D API
	@remarks
	The RenderSystem class provides a base interface
	which abstracts the general functionality of the 3D API
	e.g. Direct3D or OpenGL. Whilst a few of the general
	methods have implementations, most of this class is
	abstract, requiring a subclass based on a specific API
	to be constructed to provide the full functionality.
	Note there are 2 levels to the interface - one which
	will be used often by the caller of the Ogre library,
	and one which is at a lower level and will be used by the
	other classes provided by Ogre. These lower level
	methods are prefixed with '_' to differentiate them.
	The advanced user of the library may use these lower
	level methods to access the 3D API at a more fundamental
	level (dealing direct with render states and rendering
	primitives), but still benefiting from Ogre's abstraction
	of exactly which 3D API is in use.

		This method creates a new rendering window as specified
		by the paramteters. The rendering system could be
		responible for only a single window (e.g. in the case
		of a game), or could be in charge of multiple ones (in the
		case of a level editor). The option to create the window
		as a child of another is therefore given.
		This method will create an appropriate subclass of
		RenderWindow depending on the API and platform implementation.
		@par
		After creation, this window can be retrieved using getRenderTarget().
		@param
		name The name of the window. Used in other methods
		later like setRenderTarget and getRenderTarget.
		@param
		width The width of the new window.
		@param
		height The height of the new window.
		@param
		fullScreen Specify true to make the window full screen
		without borders, title bar or menu bar.
		@param
		miscParams A NameValuePairList describing the other parameters for the new rendering window. 
		Options are case sensitive. Unrecognised parameters will be ignored silently.
		These values might be platform dependent, but these are present for all platforms unless
