-.SH DESCRIPTION
-If the X event queue is empty,
-.ZN XtAppNextEvent
-flushes the X output buffers of each Display in the application context
-and waits for an event while looking at the other input sources, timeout
-timeout values, and signal handlers and calling any callback procedures
-triggered by them. This wait time can be used for background processing
-(see Section 7.8).
-.LP
-If there is an event in the queue,
-.ZN XtAppPeekEvent
-fills in the event and returns a nonzero value. If no X input is on the
-queue,
-.ZN XtAppPeekEvent
-flushes the output buffer and blocks until input is available
-(possibly calling some timeout callbacks in the process).
-If the input is an event,
-.ZN XtAppPeekEvent
-fills in the event and returns a nonzero value.
-Otherwise, the input is for an alternate input source, and
-.ZN XtAppPeekEvent
-returns zero.
-.LP
-The
-.ZN XtAppPending
-function returns a nonzero value if there are events pending from the
-X server, timer pending, or other input sources pending. The value
-returned is a bit mask that is the OR of
-.ZN XtIMXEvent ,
-.ZN XtIMTimer ,
-.ZN XtIMAlternateInput ,
-and
-.ZN XtIMSignal
-(see
-.ZN XtAppProcessEvent ).
-If there are no events pending,
-.ZN XtAppPending
-flushes the output buffer and returns zero.
-.LP
-The
-.ZN XtAppProcessEvent
-function processes one timer, alternate input, signal source, or X
-event. If there is nothing of the appropriate type to process,
-.ZN XtAppProcessEvent
-blocks until there is.
-If there is more than one type of thing available to process,
-it is undefined which will get processed.
-Usually, this procedure is not called by client applications (see
-.ZN XtAppMainLoop ).
-.ZN XtAppProcessEvent
-processes timer events by calling any appropriate timer callbacks,
-alternate input by calling any appropriate alternate input callbacks,
-signal source by calling any appropriate signal callbacks, and X events
-by calling
-.ZN XtDispatchEvent .
-.LP
-When an X event is received, it is passed to
-.ZN XtDispatchEvent ,
-which calls the appropriate event handlers
-and passes them the widget, the event, and client-specific data
-registered with each procedure.
-If there are no handlers for that event registered,
-the event is ignored and the dispatcher simply returns.
-The order in which the handlers are called is undefined.
-.LP
-The
-.ZN XtDispatchEvent
-function sends those events to the event handler functions that
-have been previously registered with the dispatch routine.
-.ZN XtDispatchEvent
-returns
-.ZN True
-if it dispatched the event to some handler and
-.ZN False
-if it found no handler to dispatch the event to.
-The most common use of
-.ZN XtDispatchEvent
-is to dispatch events acquired with the
-.ZN XtAppNextEvent
-procedure.
-However, it also can be used to dispatch user-constructed events.
-.ZN XtDispatchEvent
-also is responsible for implementing the grab semantics for
-.ZN XtAddGrab .
-.LP
-The
-.ZN XtAppMainLoop
-function first reads the next incoming X event by calling
-.ZN XtAppNextEvent
-and then it dispatches the event to the appropriate registered procedure
-by calling
-.ZN XtDispatchEvent .
-This constitutes the main loop of \*(tk applications,
-and, as such, it does not return unless
-.ZN XtAppSetExitFlag
-is called.
-Applications are expected to exit in response to some user action.
-There is nothing special about
-.ZN XtAppMainLoop ;
-it is simply an loop that calls
-.ZN XtAppNextEvent
-and then
-.ZN XtDispatchEvent ,
-until
-.ZN XtAppGetExitFlag ()
-returns true.
-.LP
-Applications can provide their own version of this loop,
-which tests some global termination flag or tests that the number
-of top-level widgets is larger than zero before circling back to the call to
-.ZN XtAppNextEvent .
