+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.ZN XSendEvent
+function identifies the destination window,
+determines which clients should receive the specified events,
+and ignores any active grabs.
+This function requires you to pass an event mask.
+For a discussion of the valid event mask names,
+see section 10.3.
+This function uses the w argument to identify the destination window as follows:
+.IP \(bu 5
+If w is
+.ZN PointerWindow ,
+the destination window is the window that contains the pointer.
+.IP \(bu 5
+If w is
+.ZN InputFocus
+and if the focus window contains the pointer,
+the destination window is the window that contains the pointer;
+otherwise, the destination window is the focus window.
+.LP
+To determine which clients should receive the specified events,
+.ZN XSendEvent
+uses the propagate argument as follows:
+.IP \(bu 5
+If event_mask is the empty set,
+the event is sent to the client that created the destination window.
+If that client no longer exists,
+no event is sent.
+.IP \(bu 5
+If propagate is
+.ZN False ,
+the event is sent to every client selecting on destination any of the event
+types in the event_mask argument.
+.IP \(bu 5
+If propagate is
+.ZN True
+and no clients have selected on destination any of
+the event types in event-mask, the destination is replaced with the
+closest ancestor of destination for which some client has selected a
+type in event-mask and for which no intervening window has that type in its
+do-not-propagate-mask.
+If no such window exists or if the window is
+an ancestor of the focus window and
+.ZN InputFocus
+was originally specified
+as the destination, the event is not sent to any clients.
+Otherwise, the event is reported to every client selecting on the final
+destination any of the types specified in event_mask.
+.LP
+The event in the
+.ZN XEvent
+structure must be one of the core events or one of the events
+defined by an extension (or a
+.ZN BadValue
+error results) so that the X server can correctly byte-swap
+the contents as necessary.
+The contents of the event are
+otherwise unaltered and unchecked by the X server except to force send_event to
+.ZN True
+in the forwarded event and to set the serial number in the event correctly;
+therefore these fields
+and the display field are ignored by
+.ZN XSendEvent .
+.LP
+.ZN XSendEvent
+returns zero if the conversion to wire protocol format failed
+and returns nonzero otherwise.
+.ZN XSendEvent
+can generate
+.ZN BadValue
+and
+.ZN BadWindow
+errors.
+.LP
+The server may retain the recent history of the pointer motion
+and do so to a finer granularity than is reported by
+.ZN MotionNotify
+events.
+The
+.ZN XGetMotionEvents
+function makes this history available.
+.LP
+The
+.ZN XGetMotionEvents
+function returns all events in the motion history buffer that fall between the
+specified start and stop times, inclusive, and that have coordinates
+that lie within the specified window (including its borders) at its present
+placement.
+If the server does not support motion history,
+if the start time is later than the stop time,
+or if the start time is in the future,
+no events are returned;
+.ZN XGetMotionEvents
+returns NULL.
+If the stop time is in the future, it is equivalent to specifying
+.ZN CurrentTime .
+.ZN XGetMotionEvents
+can generate a
+.ZN BadWindow
+error.
+.SH STRUCTURES
+The
+.ZN XTimeCoord
+structure contains:
+.LP
+.Ds 0
+.TA .5i
+.ta .5i
+typedef struct {
+ Time time;
+ short x, y;
+} XTimeCoord;
+.De
+.LP
+The time member is set to the time, in milliseconds.
+The x and y members are set to the coordinates of the pointer and
+are reported relative to the origin
+of the specified window.
+.SH DIAGNOSTICS
+.TP 1i
+.ZN BadValue
+Some numeric value falls outside the range of values accepted by the request.
+Unless a specific range is specified for an argument, the full range defined
+by the argument's type is accepted. Any argument defined as a set of
+alternatives can generate this error.
+.TP 1i
