XFilterEvent(3X11)					    XFilterEvent(3X11)

NAME
       XFilterEvent - filter X events for an input method

SYNOPSIS
       Bool XFilterEvent(event, w)
	       XEvent *event;
	       Window w;

ARGUMENTS
       Specifies the event to filter.  Specifies the window for which the fil‐
       ter is to be applied.

DESCRIPTION
       If the window argument is None, XFilterEvent applies the filter to  the
       window  specified  in the XEvent structure. The window argument is pro‐
       vided so that layers above Xlib that do event redirection can  indicate
       to which window an event has been redirected.

       If  XFilterEvent	 returns True, then some input method has filtered the
       event, and the client should discard the event. If XFilterEvent returns
       False, then the client should continue processing the event.

       If a grab has occurred in the client and XFilterEvent returns True, the
       client should ungrab the keyboard.
