-<title>X11 Input Extension Porting Document</title>
-
-<para>
-This document is intended to aid the process of integrating the 
-X11 Input Extension into an X server.
-</para>
-<para>
-<!-- .LP -->
-Most of the functionality provided by the input extension is 
-device- and implementation-independent, and should require no changes.  
-The functionality is implemented by
-routines that typically reside in the server source tree directory 
-extensions/server/xinput.
-This extension includes functions to enable and disable input extension devices,
-select input, grab and focus those device, query and change key 
-and button mappings, and others.  The only input extension requirements 
-for the device-dependent part of X are that the input devices be 
-correctly initialized and input events from those devices be correctly
-generated.  Device-dependent X is responsible for reading input data from 
-the input device hardware and if necessary, reformatting it into X events.
-</para>
-<para>
-<!-- .LP -->
-The process of initializing input extension devices is similar to that used 
-for the core devices, and is described in the following sections.  When
-multiple input devices are attached to X server, the choice of which devices
-to initially use as the core X pointer and keyboard is left 
-implementation-dependent.  It is also up to each implementation to decide
-whether all input devices will be opened by the server during its 
-initialization and kept open for the life of the server.  The alternative is
-to open only the X keyboard and X pointer during server initialization, and
-open other input devices only when requested by a client to do so.  Either
-type of implementation is supported by the input extension.
-</para>
-<para>
-<!-- .LP -->
-Input extension events generated by the X server use the same 32-byte xEvent
-wire event as do core input events.  However, additional information must be
-sent for input extension devices, requiring that multiple xEvents be generated
-each time data is received from an input extension device.  These xEvents are
-combined into a single client XEvent by the input extension library.  A later
-section of this document describes the format and generation of input extension
-events.
-</para>
-<sect1 id="Initializing_Extension_Devices">
-<title>Initializing Extension Devices</title>
-<para>
-<!-- .LP -->
-Extension input devices are initialized in the same manner as the core 
-X input devices.  Device-Independent X provides functions that can be 
-called from DDX to initialize these devices.  Which functions are called
-and when will vary by implementation, and will depend on whether the 
-implementation opens all the input devices available to X when X is initialized,
-or waits until a client requests that a device be opened.
-In the simplest case, DDX will open all input devices as part of its
-initialization, when the InitInput routine is called.
