Here's a question for all you X11R2 wizards:

    I'm writing a program that does a select on a socket to wait for
    data from a daemon program.  It also needs to look for events from the 
    X server (exposes, mouse clicks, etc.).  I really don't want to do a 
    non blocking select, check if there are X events and then go back to 
    sleep.  I'm a novice 'X' programmer: is there something I'm missing?
