LOL i am correct and the systems are way different.

Win32 has PeekMessage() and so does Xlib, but Win32 returns 0 and stops where Xlib blocks and waits for the next message to occure.

So to get the same effect as Win32 we must use something like:

PHP Code:

int ProcessQueue()
{
#ifdef WIN32
    MSG message;
    while (PeekMessage(&msg, NULL, 0, 0, PM_REMOVE) > 0)
    {
        if (MSG.message == WM_QUIT) { return 0; }
        TranslateMessage(&message);
        DispatchMessage(&message);
    }
#else
    XEvent message;
    while (XEventsQueued(display_connect_id, QueuedAfterReading))
    {
        XNextEvent(display_connect_id, &message);
        MyMessageHandler(message);
    }
    return 1; // all messages handled
#endif
} 


just my $0.02
