Runs a single iteration of the mainloop. If no events are waiting to be

want to block look at gtk_main_iteration_do or check if any events are
pending with gtk_events_pending first.

Process a single GDK event. This is public only to allow filtering of events
between GDK and GTK. You will not usually need to call this function directly.
</para>
<para>
While you should not call this function directly, you might want to know
how exactly events are handled. So here is what this function does with
the event:
</para>
@event:
<orderedlist>
<listitem><para>
Compress enter/leave notify events. If the event passed build an
enter/leave pair together with the next event (peeked from Gdk)
both events are thrown away. This is to avoid a backlog of (de-)highlighting
widgets crossed by the pointer.
</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>
Find the widget which got the event. If the widget can't be determined
the event is thrown away unless it belongs to a INCR transaction. In that
case it is passed to gtk_selection_incr_event.
</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>
Then the event is passed on a stack so you can query the currently handled
event with gtk_get_current_event.
</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>
The event is sent to a widget. If a grab is active all events for
widgets that are not in the contained in the grab widget are sent to the
latter with a few exceptions:

obvious reasons.
</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>

<listitem><para>
Leave events are delivered to the event widget if there was an enter

</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>
Drag events are not redirected because it is unclear what the semantics
of that would be.
</para></listitem>
</itemizedlist>
Another point of interest might be that all keypresses are first passed
through the key snooper functions if there are any. Read the description
of gtk_key_snooper_install() if you need this feature.

<!-- ##### FUNCTION gtk_quit_add_full ##### -->
<para>
Registers a function to be called when an instance of the mainloop is left.
In comparison to gtk_quit_add() this function adds the possibility to
pass a marshaller and a function to be called when the quit handler is freed.
</para>
<para>
The former can be used to run interpreted code instead of a compiled function
while the latter can be used to free the information stored in %data (while
you can do this in %function as well)... So this function will mostly be
used by GTK+ wrappers for languages other than C.
