-<title>Introduction</title>
-<para>
-This is a proposal for an extension to the X11 server and Xlib.
-It provides two capabilities:
-</para>
-
-<itemizedlist>
- <listitem>
- <para>
-It allows a client to generate user input actions in the server without
-requiring a user to be present.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
-It also allows a client to control the
-handling of user input actions by the server.
- </para>
- </listitem>
-</itemizedlist>
-
-<para>
-The capability
-to allow a client to generate user input actions in the server
-will be used by some of the X Testing Consortium Xlib tests.
-Both capabilities will be used by the X Testing Consortium client exerciser
-program.
-These capabilities may also be useful in other programs.
-</para>
-
-<para>
-This extension requires modification to device-dependent code in the
-server. Therefore it is not a 'portable' extension as defined by the
-X11 Server Extensions document. However, the majority of the code
-and functionality of this extension will be implementation-independent.

-
-<itemizedlist>

- <para>
-Input actions may be sent from a client to the server to be
-processed just as if the user had physically performed them.

-The information provided to the server includes what action should be
-performed, and how long to delay before processing the action in the server.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
-User input actions may be diverted to a client before being processed by the
-server.
-The effect on the server is as if the user had performed no input action.
-The user input actions are provided to the client in the form of X events
-defined by this extension.
-The information provided to the client includes what user input action
-occurred and the delay between this user input action and the previous user
-input action.
-The client may then do anything it wishes with this information.
