# NAME

XtNextEvent, XtPending, XtPeekEvent, XtProcessEvent, XtMainLoop - query and process events and input

# SYNTAX

void XtNextEvent(XEvent * event_return);
Boolean XtPeekEvent(XEvent * event_return);
Boolean XtPending(void);
void XtProcessEvent(XtInputMask mask);
void XtMainLoop(void);

# ARGUMENTS

event
  Specifies a pointer to the event structure that is to be dispatched to the appropriate event handler.

event_return
  Returns the event information to the specified event structure.

mask
  Specifies what types of events to process. The mask is the bitwise inclusive OR of any combination of XtIMXEvent, XtIMTimer, XtIMAlternateInput, and XtIMSignal. As a convenience, the X Toolkit defines the symbolic name XtIMAll to be the bitwise inclusive OR of all event types.
