10'\" The definitions below are for supplemental macros used in Tcl/Tk
11'\" manual entries.
12'\"
13'\" .AP type name in/out ?indent?
14'\" Start paragraph describing an argument to a library procedure.
15'\" type is type of argument (int, etc.), in/out is either "in", "out",
16'\" or "in/out" to describe whether procedure reads or modifies arg,
17'\" and indent is equivalent to second arg of .IP (shouldn't ever be
18'\" needed; use .AS below instead)
19'\"
20'\" .AS ?type? ?name?
21'\" Give maximum sizes of arguments for setting tab stops. Type and
22'\" name are examples of largest possible arguments that will be passed
23'\" to .AP later. If args are omitted, default tab stops are used.
24'\"
25'\" .BS
26'\" Start box enclosure. From here until next .BE, everything will be
27'\" enclosed in one large box.
28'\"
29'\" .BE
30'\" End of box enclosure.
31'\"
32'\" .CS
33'\" Begin code excerpt.
34'\"
35'\" .CE
36'\" End code excerpt.
37'\"
38'\" .VS ?version? ?br?
39'\" Begin vertical sidebar, for use in marking newly-changed parts
40'\" of man pages. The first argument is ignored and used for recording
41'\" the version when the .VS was added, so that the sidebars can be
42'\" found and removed when they reach a certain age. If another argument
43'\" is present, then a line break is forced before starting the sidebar.
44'\"
45'\" .VE
46'\" End of vertical sidebar.
47'\"
48'\" .DS
49'\" Begin an indented unfilled display.
50'\"
51'\" .DE
52'\" End of indented unfilled display.
53'\"
54'\" .SO
55'\" Start of list of standard options for a Tk widget. The
56'\" options follow on successive lines, in four columns separated
57'\" by tabs.
58'\"
59'\" .SE
60'\" End of list of standard options for a Tk widget.
61'\"
62'\" .OP cmdName dbName dbClass
63'\" Start of description of a specific option. cmdName gives the
64'\" option's name as specified in the class command, dbName gives
65'\" the option's name in the option database, and dbClass gives
66'\" the option's class in the option database.
67'\"
68'\" .UL arg1 arg2
69'\" Print arg1 underlined, then print arg2 normally.

257.SH ARGUMENTS
258.AS "unsigned long" clientData
259.AP Tk_Window tkwin in
260Token for window in which events may occur.
261.AP "unsigned long" mask in
262Bit-mask of events (such as \fBButtonPressMask\fR)
263for which \fIproc\fR should be called.
264.AP Tk_EventProc *proc in
265Procedure to invoke whenever an event in \fImask\fR occurs
266in the window given by \fItkwin\fR.
267.AP ClientData clientData in
268Arbitrary one-word value to pass to \fIproc\fR.
269.BE

271.SH DESCRIPTION
272.PP
273\fBTk_CreateEventHandler\fR arranges for \fIproc\fR to be
274invoked in the future whenever one of the event types specified
275by \fImask\fR occurs in the window specified by \fItkwin\fR.
276The callback to \fIproc\fR will be made by \fBTk_HandleEvent\fR;
277this mechanism only works in programs that dispatch events
278through \fBTk_HandleEvent\fR (or through other Tk procedures that
279call \fBTk_HandleEvent\fR, such as \fBTk_DoOneEvent\fR or
280\fBTk_MainLoop\fR).
281.PP
282\fIProc\fR should have arguments and result that match the
283type \fBTk_EventProc\fR:
284.CS
285typedef void Tk_EventProc(
286 ClientData \fIclientData\fR,
287 XEvent *\fIeventPtr\fR);
288.CE
289The \fIclientData\fR parameter to \fIproc\fR is a copy of the \fIclientData\fR
290argument given to \fBTk_CreateEventHandler\fR when the callback
291was created. Typically, \fIclientData\fR points to a data
292structure containing application-specific information about
293the window in which the event occurred. \fIEventPtr\fR is
294a pointer to the X event, which will be one of the ones
295specified in the \fImask\fR argument to \fBTk_CreateEventHandler\fR.
296.PP
297\fBTk_DeleteEventHandler\fR may be called to delete a
298previously-created event handler: it deletes the first handler
299it finds that is associated with \fItkwin\fR and matches the
300\fImask\fR, \fIproc\fR, and \fIclientData\fR arguments. If
301no such handler exists, then \fBTk_HandleEvent\fR returns
302without doing anything. Although Tk supports it, it's probably
303a bad idea to have more than one callback with the same \fImask\fR,
304\fIproc\fR, and \fIclientData\fR arguments.
305When a window is deleted all of its handlers will be deleted
306automatically; in this case there is no need to call
307\fBTk_DeleteEventHandler\fR.
308.PP
309If multiple handlers are declared for the same type of X event
310on the same window, then the handlers will be invoked in the
311order they were created.
