                 Specifies the mask of events to redirect.

       datatype

DESCRIPTION

       X Event Interception Extension (XEvIE) is designed for users  who  need
       to intercept all the Keyboard and Mouse events.  Programs can determine
       which events should be forwarded to other clients and modify the events
       if necessary.

FUNCTIONS

       XevieQueryVersion  The XevieQueryVersion function returns the major and
       minor protocol version numbers supported by the server.  XevieQueryVer-
       sion returns True if success, otherwise, it returns False.

       XevieStart  The  XevieStart  function requests that the X server enable
       the XEvIE extension.  Once  XEvIE  is  successfully  enabled,  all  the
       XevieSelectInput  specified events will be sent to the client which has
       enabled XEvIE.  If XKB or AccessX is enabled, the events that are  sent
       to the XEvIE clients are XKB/AccessX processed (filtered) ones.

       XevieSendEvent Events are sent back to the X server through XevieSendE-
       vent.

       XevieEnd The XevieEnd function requests that the X server disables  the
       XEvIE  extension.   Once  XEvIE  is disabled successfully, the X server
       stops sending events to the XEvIE client.

       XevieSelectInput The XevieSelectInput  function  requests  that  the  X
       server  reports  the  keyboard  and  pointer events associated with the
       specified event mask.  By default, X will report KeyPress,  KeyRelease,
       ButtonPress, ButtonRelease and MotionNotify events.

RESTRICTIONS

       Xevie will remain upward compatible after the current 1.0 release.
