DESCRIPTION

       LibGGI  provides input facilities through an auxiliary library, LibGII.
       Each LibGGI visual internally contains a  gii_input_t  input,  and  all
       LibGII  functions  are available to manipulate and process inputs.  The
       LibGGI versions  provided  of  most  LibGII  functions  simply  take  a
       ggi_visual_t  rather  than  gii_input_t for convenience during everyday
       usage.  Events are LibGII types.  All other semantics are the same; see
       libgii(7) for details.
              Important:  By  default  LibGGI  visuals autodetect and open the
              appropriate inputs, including mouse and keyboard and  any  other
              inputs  that are intrinsic to the visual e.g. any registered X11
              input device under the X target.  Thus in the usual cases  there
              is  no  need to open a LibGII gii_input_t directly (and that may
              in fact fail because an input  device  is  already  open).   The
              LibGGI  ggiEvent*  functions  must  be used to do event handling
              with LibGGI visuals,  and  provide  adequate  support  for  most
              everyday, single-visual usage.

              Advanced   management   of  input  sources  is  accomplished  by
              detaching the input from the visual and using  LibGII  functions
              on  the separate visual handle (see ggiDetachInput(3)).  This is
              encouraged, for  example,  when  joining  inputs  from  multiple
              visuals,  because  when two visuals share the same joined input,
              you cannot ggiClose both of the  visuals  (a  fatal  error  will
              result,  because  closing  the  first  visual closes both of the
              joined inputs and leaves the second closed visual with  a  stale
              input handle.)
