- I have an C, Xlib based program with a main loop built around
- XNextEvent, and I want to periodically flicker the screen. I have early
- copies of the O'Reilly books for Xlib, but I cannot figure out a good way to
- periodically send/receive an event that says "change screen now". The
- peridicity is on the order of 6 times per second. Can someone send me a code
- snippet, or point me to the correct routine? Thanks for your help.
