13 \fBSDL_PumpEvents\fP gathers all the pending input information from devices and places it on the event queue\&. Without calls to \fBSDL_PumpEvents\fP no events would ever be placed on the queue\&. Often calls the need for \fBSDL_PumpEvents\fP is hidden from the user since \fI\fBSDL_PollEvent\fP\fR and \fI\fBSDL_WaitEvent\fP\fR implicitly call \fBSDL_PumpEvents\fP\&. However, if you are not polling or waiting for events (e\&.g\&. your filtering them), then you must call \fBSDL_PumpEvents\fP to force an event queue update\&.
