NAME
XtAppAddInput, XtRemoveInput - register and remove an input
source
SYNOPSIS

proc, client_data)

int source;
caddr_t condition;

caddr_t client_data;
void XtRemoveInput(id)
XtInputId id; This is user-contributed.
ARGUMENTS
app_context
Specifies the application context that identifies
the application.
client_data
Specifies the argument that is to be passed to the
specified procedure when input is available.
condition Specifies the mask that indicates a read, write,
or exception condition or some operating system
dependent condition.
id Specifies the ID returned from the corresponding
XtAppAddInput call.
proc Specifies the procedure that is to be called when
input is available.
source Specifies the source file descriptor on a UNIX*

DESCRIPTION
The XtAppAddInput function registers with the Intrinsics
read routine a new source of events, which is usually file
input but can also be file output. Note that file should be
loosely interpreted to mean any sink or source of data.
XtAppAddInput also specifies the conditions under which the
source can generate events. When input is pending on this
source, the callback procedure is called.
The legal values for the condition argument are operating-
system dependent. On a UNIX operating system, the condition
is some union of XtInputReadMask, XtInputWriteMask, and
XtInputExceptMask. The XtRemoveInput function causes the
