DESCRIPTION
       X Event Interception Extension (XEvIE) is designed for users who need to intercept all  the  Keyboard
       and  Mouse events.  Programs can determine which events should be forwarded to other clients and mod-ify modify
       ify the events if necessary.



FUNCTIONS
       XevieQueryVersion The XevieQueryVersion function returns the major and minor protocol version numbers
       supported by the server.  XevieQueryVersion returns True if success, otherwise, it returns False.

       XevieStart The XevieStart function requests that the X server enable the XEvIE extension.  Once XEvIE
       is successfully enabled, all the XevieSelectInput specified events will be sent to the  client  which
       has  enabled  XEvIE.  If XKB or AccessX is enabled, the events that are sent to the XEvIE clients are
       XKB/AccessX processed (filtered) ones.

       XevieSendEvent Events are sent back to the X server through XevieSendEvent.

       XevieEnd The XevieEnd function requests that the X server disables the XEvIE extension.   Once  XEvIE
       is disabled successfully, the X server stops sending events to the XEvIE client.

       XevieSelectInput  The  XevieSelectInput  function requests that the X server reports the keyboard and
       pointer events associated with the specified event mask.  By default, X will report KeyPress,  KeyRe-lease, KeyRelease,
       lease, ButtonPress, ButtonRelease and MotionNotify events.


RESTRICTIONS
       Xevie will remain upward compatible after the current 1.0 release.
