I have used the X Input method of handleing spaceball input. I have
also gotten the Spaceball SDK working when using Motif/Xlib. I was
wondering if anyone has tried using the SDK with the Performer Windowing
and GUI interfaces. I see that pfuInitInput can take the parameter
PFUINPUT_X, which (if I understand things correctly) should use X for
its windowing.

The SDK needs the top level display and window to initialize the
spaceball. From what I can see the display can be obtained from
pfGetCurWSConnection(), and it appears that pw->getWSWindow() should
give the Window (where pw is the pfPipeWindow). However, my program
crashes and in debugging, the WSWindow is NULL. There is a prWindow
inside the pfPipeWindow, but there doesn't appear to be any way to
access it, and I am not sure if that is what I would want anyway.

Anyone have any idea if this is even possible?
