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. -.AE -.MT 4 -.nr Cl 4 -.PH "'X11 Input Synthesis Extension Proposal''Page \\\\nP'" -.PF "''\\\\*(DT''" -.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. -.H 3 XTestMovePointer -.DS -int -XTestMovePointer(\fIdisplay\fR, \fIdevice_id\fR, \fIdelay\fR, \fIx\fR, \fIy\fR, \fIcount\fR) - Display \(**\fIdisplay\fR;
