+\fBTk_QueueWindowEvent\fR places a window event on Tcl's internal event
+queue for eventual servicing. It creates a Tcl_Event structure, copies the
+event into that structure, and calls \fBTcl_QueueEvent\fR to add the event
+to the queue. When the event is eventually removed from the queue it is
processed just like all window events.
.PP
+When multiple motion events are received for the same window in rapid
+succession, they are collapsed by default. This behavior can be controlled
+with \fBTk_CollapseMotionEvents\fR. \fBTk_CollapseMotionEvents\fR always
+returns the previous value for collapse behavior on the \fIdisplay\fR.
+.PP
The \fIposition\fR argument to \fBTk_QueueWindowEvent\fR has
the same significance as for \fBTcl_QueueEvent\fR; see the
documentation for \fBTcl_QueueEvent\fR for details.
