XtSetSelectionTimeout() 												   XtSetSelectionTimeout()

Name
  XtSetSelectionTimeout - set the Intrinsics selection timeout value.

Synopsis
  void XtSetSelectionTimeout(timeout)
	 unsigned long timeout;

Inputs
  timeout   Specifies the selection timeout in milliseconds.

Availability
  XtSetSelectionTimeout() has been superseded by XtAppSetSelectionTimeout().

Description
  XtSetSelectionTimeout()  sets  the  Intrinsics  selection  timeout value.  The selection timeout is the time within which two communicating
  applications must respond to one another.  The initial timeout value is set by the  selectionTimeout	application  resource,	which  has  a
  default value of 5000 milliseconds (5 seconds).

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  XtSetSelectionTimeout()  has	been  superseded by XtAppSetSelectionTimeout(), which performs the same function on a per-application context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

  See XtAppSetSelectionTimeout() for more information.

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  XtPeekEvent() has been superseded by XtAppPeekEvent().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  XtPeekEvent()  has been superseded by XtAppPeekEvent(), which performs the same function on a per-application context basis.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().
