XPutBackEvent(3X11)						     MIT X11R4						       XPutBackEvent(3X11)

Name
       XPutBackEvent - put events back on the queue

Syntax
       XPutBackEvent(display, event)
	  Display *display;
	  XEvent *event;

Arguments
       display	 Specifies the connection to the X server.

       event	 Specifies a pointer to the event.

Description
       The function pushes an event back onto the head of the display's event queue by copying the event into the queue.  This can be useful if
       you read an event and then decide that you would rather deal with it later.  There is no limit to the number of times in succession that
       you can call

Name
       XIfEvent, XCheckIfEvent, XPeekIfEvent - check the event queue with a predicate procedure

Syntax
       XIfEvent(display, event_return, predicate, arg)
	  Display *display;
	  XEvent *event_return;
	  Bool (*predicate)();
	  char *arg;

       Bool XCheckIfEvent(display, event_return, predicate, arg)
	  Display *display;
	  XEvent *event_return;
	  Bool (*predicate)();
	  char *arg;

       XPeekIfEvent(display, event_return, predicate, arg)
	  Display *display;
	  XEvent *event_return;
	  Bool (*predicate)();
	  char *arg;

Arguments
       arg	 Specifies the user-supplied argument that will be passed to the predicate procedure.

       display	 Specifies the connection to the X server.

       event_return
		 Returns either a copy of or  the matched event's associated structure.

       predicate Specifies the procedure that is to be called to determine if the next event in the queue matches what you want.

Description
       The function completes only when the specified predicate procedure returns for an event, which indicates an event in the queue matches.
       flushes the output buffer if it blocks waiting for additional events.  removes the matching event from the queue and copies the structure
       into the client-supplied structure.

       When the predicate procedure finds a match, copies the matched event into the client-supplied structure and returns (This event is removed
       from the queue.)  If the predicate procedure finds no match, returns and the output buffer will have been flushed.  All earlier events
       stored in the queue are not discarded.

       The function returns only when the specified predicate procedure returns for an event.  After the predicate procedure finds a match, copies
       the matched event into the client-supplied structure without removing the event from the queue.	flushes the output buffer if it blocks
       waiting for additional events.
