Description
       The function copies the first event from the event queue into the specified structure and then removes it from the queue.  If the event
       queue is empty, flushes the output buffer and blocks until an event is received.

       The function returns the first event from the event queue, but it does not remove the event from the queue.  If the queue is empty, flushes
       the output buffer and blocks until an event is received.  It then copies the event into the client-supplied structure without removing it
       from the event queue.

       The function searches the event queue for an event that matches both the specified window and event mask.  When it finds a match, removes
       that event from the queue and copies it into the specified structure.  The other events stored in the queue are not discarded.  If a match-
       ing event is not in the queue, flushes the output buffer and blocks until one is received.

       The function searches the event queue and then the events available on the server connection for the first event that matches the specified
       window and event mask.  If it finds a match, removes that event, copies it into the specified structure, and returns The other events
       stored in the queue are not discarded.  If the event you requested is not available, returns and the output buffer will have been flushed.

       The function searches the event queue for the events associated with the specified mask.  When it finds a match, removes that event and
       copies it into the specified structure.	The other events stored in the queue are not discarded.  If the event you requested is not in the
       queue, flushes the output buffer and blocks until one is received.

       The function searches the event queue and then any events available on the server connection for the first event that matches the specified
       mask.  If it finds a match, removes that event, copies it into the specified structure, and returns The other events stored in the queue
       are not discarded.  If the event you requested is not available, returns and the output buffer will have been flushed.

       The function searches the event queue and then any events available on the server connection for the first event that matches the specified
       type.  If it finds a match, removes that event, copies it into the specified structure, and returns The other events in the queue are not
       discarded.  If the event is not available, returns and the output buffer will have been flushed.

       The function searches the event queue and then any events available on the server connection for the first event that matches the specified
       type and window.  If it finds a match, removes the event from the queue, copies it into the specified structure, and returns The other
       events in the queue are not discarded.  If the event is not available, returns and the output buffer will have been flushed.
