XHPPrompt(3X)															     XHPPrompt(3X)

NAME

       XHPPrompt - Send a prompt to an extended input device.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <X11/XHPlib.h>

       int XHPPrompt (display, deviceid, prompt)
	    Display   *display;
	    XID       deviceid;
	    unsigned  int prompt;

ARGUMENTS

       display	   Specifies the connection to the X server.

       deviceid    Specifies the ID of the desired device.

       Prompt	   Specifies the Prompt to be sent.  Valid values are: GENERAL_PROMPT, PROMPT_1, PROMPT_2, PROMPT_3, PROMPT_4, PROMPT_5, PROMPT_6,
		   PROMPT_7.

DESCRIPTION

       This request is part of an HP-proprietary extension to X.  Its functionality has been superseded by the standard X input device extension
       XChangeFeedbackControl request.	You should use XChangeFeedbackControl instead of XHPPrompt if possible.

       This request sends a prompt to an input device.

       A prompt is an audio or visual indication that the program controlling the input device is ready for input.  The program may indicate that
       status by turning on a prompt on the appropriate input device.

       Not all input devices support prompts and acknowledges.	Any device that does support a particular prompt will also support the
       corresponding acknowledge.

       To determine whether an input device supports a particular prompt and acknowledge, the io_byte field of the XHPDeviceList structure should
       be examined.  The format of this structure is described in the documentation for the XHPListInputDevices request.

RETURN VALUE

       none

DIAGNOSTICS

       BadDevice   An invalid device ID was specified.

       BadValue    An invalid prompt was specified.

FILES

       /usr/include/X11/XHPlib.h

ORIGIN

       Hewlett-Packard Company
