hmmm

That's getting to what I'm after. I've never seen the innards of the WaitForMultiple... stuff (though I make pretty good use of the api's). I've never used the used the motif libraries. I really just want to know how to do the select. So, I'm digging through Motif now looking for the guts of the XtAppAddTimeout / XtAppMainLoop. I get about a thousand hits for the XtAppMainLoop, but none on XtAppAddTimeout. Any idea where the actual select is?

XtPeekEvent()															     XtPeekEvent()

Name
  XtPeekEvent - return, but do not remove the event at	the head of an application's input queue.

Synopsis
  Boolean XtPeekEvent(event_return)
	 XEvent *event_return;

Inputs
  event_return
	      Returns the event information from the head event structure in the queue.

Returns
  True if the event at the head of the queue is an X event; False if it is a timer event or an alternate input source event.

Availability
  XtPeekEvent() has been superseded by XtAppPeekEvent().

Description
  XtPeekEvent() returns a copy of the X event at the head of the input queue, without removing it from the queue.  If there is an X event, it
  returns True.  If there are no X events pending, but there are timer or alternate events, XtPeekEvent() returns False.   If  there  are  no
  events pending, XtPeekEvent() blocks.

Usage
  XtPeekEvent()  has been superseded by XtAppPeekEvent(), which performs the same function on a per-application context basis.	XtPeekEvent()
  now calls XtAppPeekEvent() passing the default application context created by XtInitialize().  Very few programs need multiple  application
  contexts,  and  you  can continue to use XtPeekEvent() if you initialize your application with XtInitialize().  We recommend, however, that
  you use XtAppInitialize(), XtAppPeekEvent(), and the other XtApp*() application context specific functions.

  See XtAppPeekEvent() for more information.

  Programs rarely need this much control over the event dispatching mechanism.	Most programs use XtAppMainLoop().

  XtAppMainLoop(1), XtAppPeekEvent(1), XtAppPending(1).
