Multifinder documentation is available from APDA.  Apple sent preliminary
System 7 documentation to all registered developers.

WaitNextEvent takes two additional parameters:
a LongInt, the number of ticks, max, to sleep, before returning a nullEvent
a handle to a Region, in global coordinates. If the mouse goes outside
of that region, you'll start getting events informing you that the mouse is
outside your region. You are supposed to modify the cursor, modify the region,
and wait again.
