NAME

	GT_FilterIMsg -- filter an IntuiMessage through GadTools. (V36)

SYNOPSIS

	modimsg = GT_FilterIMsg(imsg)
	D0                      A1
	struct IntuiMessage *GT_FilterIMsg(struct IntuiMessage *);

FUNCTION

	NOTE WELL:  Extremely few programs will actually need this function.
	You almost certainly should be using GT_GetIMsg() and GT_ReplyIMsg()
	only, and not GT_FilterIMsg() and GT_PostFilterIMsg().
	GT_FilterIMsg() takes the supplied IntuiMessage and asks the
	Gadget Toolkit to consider and possibly act on it.  Returns
	NULL if the message was only of significance to a GadTools gadget
	(i.e. not to you), else returns a pointer to a modified IDCMP
	message, which may contain additional information.
	You should examine the Class, Code, and IAddress fields of
	the returned message to learn what happened.  Do not make
	interpretations based on the original imsg.
	You should use GT_PostFilterIMsg() to revert to the original
	IntuiMessage once you are done with the modified one.

INPUTS

	imsg - an IntuiMessage you obtained from a Window's UserPort.

RESULT

	modimsg - a modified IntuiMessage, possibly with extra information
	          from GadTools, or NULL. When NULL, the message passed in to
		  the function should be sent back to Intuition via ReplyMsg()

NOTES

	Starting with V39, this function actually expects and returns
	pointers to ExtIntuiMessage structures, but the prototype was not
	changed for source code compatibility with older software.

WARNING

	If this function returns NULL, you must call ReplyMsg() on the
	IntuiMessage you passed in to GT_FilterIMsg(). That is, if the
	message was processed by the toolkit you must reply this message
	to Intuition since gadtools will not do this automatically.
