-X11 INPUT SYNTHESIS EXTENSION PROPOSAL
-.AF "Hewlett Packard"
-.ds ZZ Corvallis~Workstation~Operation
-.AU "Larry Woestman" "" ZZ
-.AT "Member of Technical Staff"
-.AS
-This is a proposal for an extension to the X11 server and Xlib.
-It provides two capabilities:
-.BL
-.LI
-It allows a client to generate user input actions in the server without
-requiring a user to be present.
-.LI
-It also allows a client to control the
-handling of user input actions by the server.
-.LE
-.P
-The capability
-to allow a client to generate user input actions in the server
-will be used by some of the X Testing Consortium Xlib tests.
-Both capabilities will be used by the X Testing Consortium client exerciser
-program.
-These capabilities may also be useful in other programs.
-.P
-This extension requires modification to device-dependent code in the
-server. Therefore it is not a `portable' extension as defined by the
-X11 Server Extensions document. However, the majority of the code
-and functionality of this extension will be implementation-independent.

-.SK 1
-.H 1 Conventions~Used~In~This~Document
-The naming conventions used in the Xlib documentation are followed
-with these additions:
-.BL
-.LI
-The names of all functions defined in this extension begin with `XTest',
-with the first letter of each additional word capitalized.
-.LI
-The names of the protocol request structures follow the Xlib convention
-of `x<name>Req'.
-.LI
-The names of the protocol request minor type codes follow the Xlib convention
-of `X_<name>'.
-.LI
-The names of all other constants defined in this extension begin with `XTest',
-with the rest of the name in upper case letters.
-.LI
-All constants and structures defined in this extension will have their
-values specified in the `xtestext1.h' file (listed in section 5).
-.LE
-.H 1 Definition~Of~Terms
-.H 2 Input~Actions
-Input actions are pointer movements, button presses and releases,
-and key presses and releases. They can be generated by a user or by a client
-(using functions in this extension).
-.H 2 User~Input~Actions
-User input actions are input actions that are generated by the user
-moving a pointing device (typically a mouse), pressing and releasing buttons on
-the pointing device, and pressing and releasing keys on the keyboard.
-.SK
-.H 1 What~Does~This~Extension~Do?
-Without this extension, user input actions are processed by the server,
-and are converted into normal X events that are sent to the
-appropriate client or clients.
-.P
-This extension adds the following capabilities:
-.BL
-.LI
-Input actions may be sent from a client to the server to be
-processed just as if the user had physically performed them.
-The input actions are provided to the server in the form of X protocol
-requests defined by this extension.
-The information provided to the server includes what action should be
-performed, and how long to delay before processing the action in the server.
-.LI
-User input actions may be diverted to a client before being processed by the
-server.
-The effect on the server is as if the user had performed no input action.
-The user input actions are provided to the client in the form of X events
-defined by this extension.
-The information provided to the client includes what user input action
-occurred and the delay between this user input action and the previous user
-input action.
-The client may then do anything it wishes with this information.
-.LI
-User input actions may be copied, with one copy going to the server in the
-normal way, and the other copy being sent to a client as described above.
-.LE
-.SK
-.H 1 Functions~In~This~Extension
-.H 2 High~Level~Functions
-These functions are built on top of the low level functions described later.

-.LE
-.P
-The
-.I XTestGetInput
-function tells the server to begin putting information about user input actions
-into events to be sent to the client that called this function. These events
-can be read via the Xlib \fIXNextEvent\fR function.
-.P
-The server assigns an event type of \fIXTestInputActionType\fR to these events
-to distinguish them from other events.
-Since the actual value of the event type may vary depending on how many
-extensions are included with an X11 implementation,
-\fIXTestInputActionType\fR is a variable that will be contained in the Xlib
-part of this extension. It may be referenced as follows:
-.DS
-extern int XTestInputActionType;
-.DE
-.P
-An \fIaction_handling\fR value of 0 causes the server
-to send one user input action in each \fIXTestInputActionType\fR event.
-This can sometimes cause performance problems.
-.P
-An \fIaction_handling\fR value of \fIXTestPACKED_ACTIONS\fR causes the server
-to pack as many user input actions as possible into a
-\fIXTestInputActionType\fR event.
-This is needed if user input actions are happening rapidly (such as
-when the user moves the pointer) to keep performance at a reasonable level.
-.P
-An \fIaction_handling\fR value of \fIXTestPACKED_MOTION\fR causes the server
-to pack only user input actions associated with moving the pointer.
-This allows the
-client to receive button and key motions as they happen without waiting for the
-event to fill up, while still keeping performance at a reasonable level.
-.P
-An \fIaction_handling\fR value with \fIXTestEXCLUSIVE\fR `or'ed in
-causes the server to send user input actions only to the client.
-The effect on the server is as if the user had performed no input actions.
-.P
-An \fIaction_handling\fR value without \fIXTestEXCLUSIVE\fR
-causes the server to copy user input actions, sending one copy to the
-client, and handling the other copy normally (as it would if this extension
-were not installed).
-.P
-There are four types of input actions that are passed from the server
-to the client. They are:
-.VL 25
-.LI key/button~state~change
-This type of input action contains the keycode of the key or button that
-changed state;
-whether the key or button is up or down,
-and the time delay between this input action and the previous input action.
-.LI pointer~motions
-This type of input action contains information about the motion of the
-pointer when the pointer has only moved a short distance.
-If the pointer has moved a long distance,
-the pointer jump input action is used.
-.LI pointer~jumps
-This type of input action contains information about the motion of the
-pointer when the pointer has moved a long distance.
-.LI delays
-This type of input action is used when the delay between input actions is too
-large to be held in the other input actions.
-.LE
-.P
-The
-.I XTestGetInput
-function will return -1 if there is an error, and 0 otherwise.
-.P
-An error code of \fIBadAccess\fR means that another client has already

-into events.
-The server will process user input actions normally (as it would
-if this extension were not in the server).
-.P
-The
-.I XTestStopInput

-Specifies the size (in bytes) of the list of input actions.
-It may be no larger than \fIXTestMAX_ACTION_LIST_SIZE\fR bytes.
-.LI \fIack_flag\fR
-Specifies whether the server needs to send an event to indicate that its
-input action buffer is empty (one of
-\fIXTestFAKE_ACK_NOT_NEEDED\fR or \fIXTestFAKE_ACK_REQUEST\fR).
-.LE
-.P
-The
-.I XTestFakeInput
-function tells the server to take the specified user input actions and process
-them as if the user had physically performed them.
-.P
-The server can only accept a limited number of input actions at one
-time. This limit can be determined by the \fIXTestQueryInputSize\fR function
-in this extension.
-.P
-The client should set \fIack_flag\fR to \fIXTestFAKE_ACK_NOT_NEEDED\fR
-on calls to \fIXTestFakeInput\fR that do not reach this limit.
-.P
-The client should set \fIack_flag\fR to \fIXTestFAKE_ACK_REQUEST\fR
-on the call to \fIXTestFakeInput\fR that reaches this limit.
-.P
-When the server sees an \fIack_flag\fR value of \fIXTestFAKE_ACK_REQUEST\fR
-it finishes processing its input action buffer, then sends an event with
-type \fIXTestFakeAckType\fR to the client.
-When the client reads this event, it knows that it is safe to resume
-sending input actions to the server.
-.P
-Since the actual value of the event type may vary depending on how many
-extensions are included with an X11 implementation,
-\fIXTestFakeAckType\fR is a variable that is contained in the Xlib part of
-this extension. It may be referenced as follows:

-.LI pointer~motions
-This type of input action contains information about the motion of the

-If the pointer is to be moved a long distance,
-the pointer jump input action must be used.

-.LE
