.SH DESCRIPTION
.\" $Header: XSelectInput.d,v 1.3 88/06/11 07:52:55 mento Exp $
The
.ZN XSelectInput
function requests that the X server report the events associated with the
specified event mask.
Initially, X will not report any of these events.
Events are reported relative to a window.
If a window is not interested in a device event, it usually propagates to
the closest ancestor that is interested,
unless the do_not_propagate mask prohibits it.
.IN "Event" "propagation"
.LP
Setting the event-mask attribute of a window overrides any previous call
for the same window but not for other clients.
Multiple clients can select for the same events on the same window
with the following restrictions:
.IP \(bu 5
Multiple clients can select events on the same window because their event masks
are disjoint.
When the X server generates an event, it reports it
to all interested clients.
.IP \(bu 5
Only one client at a time can select
.ZN CirculateRequest ,
.ZN ConfigureRequest ,
or
.ZN MapRequest
events, which are associated with
the event mask
.ZN SubstructureRedirectMask .
.IP \(bu 5
Only one client at a time can select
a
.ZN ResizeRequest
event, which is associated with
the event mask
.ZN ResizeRedirectMask .
.IP \(bu 5
Only one client at a time can select a
.ZN ButtonPress
event, which is associated with
the event mask
.ZN ButtonPressMask .
.LP
The server reports the event to all interested clients.
.LP
.ZN XSelectInput
can generate a
.ZN BadWindow
error.
.SH DIAGNOSTICS

A value for a Window argument does not name a defined Window.
