-\fBTk_CreateEventHandler\fR arranges for \fIproc\fR to be
-invoked in the future whenever one of the event types specified
-by \fImask\fR occurs in the window specified by \fItkwin\fR.
-The callback to \fIproc\fR will be made by \fBTk_HandleEvent\fR;
-this mechanism only works in programs that dispatch events

-typedef void Tk_EventProc(
- ClientData \fIclientData\fR,

-The \fIclientData\fR parameter to \fIproc\fR is a copy of the \fIclientData\fR
-argument given to \fBTk_CreateEventHandler\fR when the callback
-was created. Typically, \fIclientData\fR points to a data
-structure containing application-specific information about
-the window in which the event occurred. \fIEventPtr\fR is
-a pointer to the X event, which will be one of the ones
-specified in the \fImask\fR argument to \fBTk_CreateEventHandler\fR.
-.PP
-\fBTk_DeleteEventHandler\fR may be called to delete a
-previously-created event handler: it deletes the first handler
-it finds that is associated with \fItkwin\fR and matches the
-\fImask\fR, \fIproc\fR, and \fIclientData\fR arguments. If
-no such handler exists, then \fBTk_HandleEvent\fR returns
-without doing anything. Although Tk supports it, it's probably
-a bad idea to have more than one callback with the same \fImask\fR,
-\fIproc\fR, and \fIclientData\fR arguments.
-When a window is deleted all of its handlers will be deleted
-automatically; in this case there is no need to call
-\fBTk_DeleteEventHandler\fR.
-.PP
-If multiple handlers are declared for the same type of X event
-on the same window, then the handlers will be invoked in the
-order they were created.
