It needs to pause while waiting for an "event".

An "event" may be input from keyboard or mouse or any arbitrary X (or 
whatever GUI) event.

Using a select loop _may_ work here since select will exit when there's 
an interrupt/signal received (but I don't know if the above events 
generate interrupts).  In that case all FD sets should be NULL.
