<P>
Events are sent from the X server to the X client.  Most of the event
types deal with user input, but there are also event types used for
inter-client communication.


<P>
Most X applications are built around an event loop, where the client
waits for the server to send events.  The client responds to the events,
typically by doing one or more X requests.
