NAME

XPutBackEvent − push an event back on the input queue. 

Synopsis

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

Arguments

displaySpecifies a connection to an X server; returned from XOpenDisplay(). 

eventSpecifies a pointer to the event to be requeued. 

Description

XPutBackEvent() pushes an event back onto the head of the current display’s input queue (so that it would become the one returned by the next XNextEvent() call).  This can be useful if you have read an event and then decide that you’d rather deal with it later.  There is no limit to how many times you can call XPutBackEvent() in succession.  For more information, see Volume One, Chapter 8, Events.
