        I found a set of routine called XSelectAsyncEvent and XSelectAsyncInput
        on DECwindows manual(VMS), but I could not find corresponding routine
        in the O'Reilly & Associates's Reference Manual nor other tutorials
        like Oliver Johnes'. Are they vender specific routine or standard
        (portable) Xlib ? 

        The reason why I need them is, I do not want to wait or stop execution
        after certain drawing on window, I think I need some sort of event
        dispatch mechanism other than event-loop type dispatching.

        Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
