+# Replacements for getevent() and pollevent(),
+# and new functions ungetevent() and sync().
+
+
+# Every library module should ideally use this instead of
+# stdwin.{get,poll}event(), so applications can use the services
+# of ungetevent() and sync().

+# force STDWIN to call XSync(), which some (esoteric) applications need.
