+
+<table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=2><td><tr><td width=20><td>
+
+ These routines provide an interface to multiple sources of input
+ for unthreaded programs. Threaded programs (see <a href="../man3/thread.html"><i>thread</i>(3)</a>) should
+ instead use the threaded mouse and keyboard interface described
+ in <a href="../man3/mouse.html"><i>mouse</i>(3)</a> and <a href="../man3/keyboard.html"><i>keyboard</i>(3)</a>.
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
+
+ <i>Einit</i> must be called first. If the argument to <i>einit</i> has the <tt><font size=+1>Emouse</font></tt>
+ and <tt><font size=+1>Ekeyboard</font></tt> bits set, the mouse and keyboard events will be
+ enabled; in this case, <i>initdraw</i> (see <a href="../man3/graphics.html"><i>graphics</i>(3)</a>) must have already
+ been called. The user must provide a function called <i>eresized</i>
+ to be called whenever the window in which the process
+ is running has been resized; the argument <i>new</i> is a flag specifying
+ whether the program must call <i>getwindow</i> (see <a href="../man3/graphics.html"><i>graphics</i>(3)</a>) to re-establish
+ a connection to its window. After resizing (and perhaps calling
+ <i>getwindow</i>), the global variable <tt><font size=+1>screen</font></tt> will be updated to point
+ to the new window&#8217;s <tt><font size=+1>Image</font></tt> structure.
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
+
+ As characters are typed on the keyboard, they are read by the
+ event mechanism and put in a queue. <i>Ekbd</i> returns the next rune
+ from the queue, blocking until the queue is non-empty. The characters
+ are read in raw mode, so they are available as soon as a complete
+ rune is typed.
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
+
+ When the mouse moves or a mouse button is pressed or released,
+ a new mouse event is queued by the event mechanism. <i>Emouse</i> returns
+ the next mouse event from the queue, blocking until the queue
+ is non-empty. <i>Emouse</i> returns a <tt><font size=+1>Mouse</font></tt> structure:<br>
+
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=2><td><tr><td width=20><td>
+
+ <tt><font size=+1>struct Mouse<br>

+ };<br>
+
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
+ </font></tt>
+
+ </table>
+ <tt><font size=+1>Buttons&amp;1</font></tt> is set when the left mouse button is pressed, <tt><font size=+1>buttons&amp;2</font></tt>
+ when the middle button is pressed, and <tt><font size=+1>buttons&amp;4</font></tt> when the right
+ button is pressed. The current mouse position is always returned
+ in <tt><font size=+1>xy</font></tt>. <tt><font size=+1>Msec</font></tt> is a time stamp in units of milliseconds.
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
+
+ <i>Ecankbd</i> and <i>ecanmouse</i> return non-zero when there are keyboard
+ or mouse events available to be read.
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
+
+ <i>Ereadmouse</i> reads the next mouse event from the file descriptor
+ connected to the mouse, converts the textual data into a <tt><font size=+1>Mouse</font></tt>
+ structure by calling <i>eatomouse</i> with the buffer and count from
+ the read call, and returns the number of bytes read, or &ndash;1 for
+ an error.
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
+
+ <i>Estart</i> can be used to register additional file descriptors to
+ scan for input. It takes as arguments the file descriptor to register,
+ the maximum length of an event message on that descriptor, and
+ a key to be used in accessing the event. The key must be a power
+ of 2 and must not conflict with any previous keys. If a zero
+ key is given, a key will be allocated and returned. <i>Estartfn</i> is
+ similar to <i>estart</i>, but processes the data received by calling
+ <i>fn</i> before returning the event to the user. The function <i>fn</i> is
+ called with the <tt><font size=+1>id</font></tt> of the event; it should return <tt><font size=+1>id</font></tt> if the event
+ is to be passed to the user, <tt><font size=+1>0</font></tt> if it is to be ignored. The variable
+ <tt><font size=+1>Event.v
+ </font></tt>can be used by <i>fn</i> to attach an arbitrary data item to the returned
+ <tt><font size=+1>Event</font></tt> structure. <tt><font size=+1>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Ekeyboard</font></tt> and <tt><font size=+1>Emouse</font></tt> are the keyboard and mouse
+ event keys.
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
+
+ <i>Etimer</i> starts a repeating timer with a period of <i>n</i> milliseconds;
+ it returns the timer event key, or zero if it fails. Only one
+ timer can be started. Extra timer events are not queued and the
+ timer channel has no associated data.
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
+
+ <i>Eread</i> waits for the next event specified by the mask <i>keys</i> of event
+ keys submitted to <i>estart</i>. It fills in the appropriate field of
+ the argument <tt><font size=+1>Event</font></tt> structure, which looks like:<br>
+
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=2><td><tr><td width=20><td>
+
+ <tt><font size=+1>struct Event<br>

+
+ </table>
+ };<br>
+
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
+ </font></tt>
+
+ </table>
+ <tt><font size=+1>Data</font></tt> is an array which is large enough to hold a 9P message. <i>Eread</i>
+ returns the key for the event which was chosen. For example, if
+ a mouse event was read, <tt><font size=+1>Emouse</font></tt> will be returned.
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
+
+ <i>Event</i> waits for the next event of any kind. The return is the
+ same as for <i>eread</i>.
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
+
+ As described in <a href="../man3/graphics.html"><i>graphics</i>(3)</a>, the graphics functions are buffered.
+ <i>Event</i>, <i>eread</i>, <i>emouse</i>, and <i>ekbd</i> all cause a buffer flush unless
+ there is an event of the appropriate type already queued.
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
+
+ <i>Ecanread</i> checks whether a call to <tt><font size=+1>eread(keys)</font></tt> would block, returning
+ 0 if it would, 1 if it would not.
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
+
+ <i>Getrect</i> prompts the user to sweep a rectangle. It should be called
+ with <i>m</i> holding the mouse event that triggered the <i>egetrect</i> (or,
+ if none, a <tt><font size=+1>Mouse</font></tt> with <tt><font size=+1>buttons</font></tt> set to 7). It changes to the sweep
+ cursor, waits for the buttons all to be released, and then waits
+ for button number <i>but</i> to be pressed, marking the initial
+ corner. If another button is pressed instead, <i>egetrect</i> returns
+ a rectangle with zero for both corners, after waiting for all
+ the buttons to be released. Otherwise, <i>egetrect</i> continually draws
+ the swept rectangle until the button is released again, and returns
+ the swept rectangle. The mouse structure pointed to by <i>m</i> will
+ contain the final mouse event.
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
+
+ <i>Egetrect</i> uses successive calls to <i>edrawgetrect</i> to maintain the
+ red rectangle showing the sweep-in-progress. The rectangle to
+ be drawn is specified by <i>rc</i> and the <i>up</i> parameter says whether
+ to draw (1) or erase (0) the rectangle.
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
+
+ <i>Emenuhit</i> displays a menu and returns a selected menu item number.
+ It should be called with <i>m</i> holding the mouse event that triggered
+ the <i>emenuhit</i>; it will call <i>emouse</i> to update it. A <tt><font size=+1>Menu</font></tt> is a structure:<br>
+
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=2><td><tr><td width=20><td>
+
+ <tt><font size=+1>struct Menu<br>
+ {<br>
+
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=2><td><tr><td width=20><td>
+
+ char &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**item;<br>
+ char &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(*gen)(int);<br>

+
+ </table>
+ };<br>
+
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
+ </font></tt>
+
+ </table>
+ If <tt><font size=+1>item</font></tt> is nonzero, it should be a null-terminated array of the
+ character strings to be displayed as menu items. Otherwise, <tt><font size=+1>gen</font></tt>
+ should be a function that, given an item number, returns the character
+ string for that item, or zero if the number is past the end of
+ the list. Items are numbered starting at zero. <i>Menuhit
+ </i>waits until <i>but</i> is released, and then returns the number of the
+ selection, or &ndash;1 for no selection. The <i>m</i> argument is filled in
+ with the final mouse event.
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
+
+ <i>Emoveto</i> moves the mouse cursor to the position <tt><font size=+1>p</font></tt> on the screen.
+
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
+
+ <i>Esetcursor</i> changes the cursor image to that described by the <tt><font size=+1>Cursor</font></tt>
+ <i>c</i> (see <a href="../man3/mouse.html"><i>mouse</i>(3)</a>). If <tt><font size=+1>c</font></tt> is nil, it restores the image to the default
