NAME
     SDL_PollEvent - Polls for currently pending events.

SYNOPSIS
     #include "SDL.h"

     int SDL_PollEvent(SDL_Event *event);

DESCRIPTION
     Polls  for currently pending events, and returns 1 if there are any pending
     events, or 0 if there are none available.

     If event is not NULL, the next event is removed from the queue  and  stored
     in that area.

EXAMPLES
     SDL_Event event; /* Event structure */

     .
     .
     .
     /* Check for events */
     while(SDL_PollEvent(&event)){  /* Loop until there are no events left on the queue */
       switch(event.type){  /* Process the appropiate event type */
	 case SDL_KEYDOWN:  /* Handle a KEYDOWN event */
	   printf("Oh! Key press
     ");
	   break;
	 case SDL_MOUSEMOTION:
	   .
	   .
	   .
	 default: /* Report an unhandled event */
	   printf("I don't know what this event is!
     ");
       }
     }
