sorry about posting a similar question a while ago but i was silly and gave the name of my XEvent structure. so anybody know where i can find a list of possible values the XEvent’s type variable? even a book would be fine.
thanks much

Also, the manual pages for specific event types list the possible type values which will occur in an event of that type (e.g. for XKeyEvent, type will be KeyPress or KeyRelease).
