Next version of internationalized input for X11. On my machine (famous last words :-) with a US English keyboard and locale I can compose ` and e and get a text input event with the character รจ. You still get the keypress keyrelease events for the individual keys that go into composing the character.

.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBSDL_JoyBallEvent\fR is a member of the \fI\fBSDL_Event\fR\fR union and is used when an event of type \fBSDL_JOYBALLMOTION\fP is reported\&.
.PP
A \fBSDL_JOYBALLMOTION\fP event occurs when a user moves a trackball on the joystick\&. The field \fBwhich\fR is the index of the joystick that reported the event and \fBball\fR is the index of the trackball (for a more detailed explaination see the \fIJoystick section\fR)\&. Trackballs only return relative motion, this is the change in position on the ball since it was last polled (last cycle of the event loop) and it is stored in \fBxrel\fR and \fByrel\fR\&.
