The input device is the central collection point for input events
disseminated throughout the system. The best way to describe the input
device is a manager of a stream with feeders.  The input device itself and
other modules such as the file system add events to the stream; so do
input device "users" - programs or other devices that use parts of the
stream or change it in some way.  Feeders of the input device include the
keyboard, timer and gameport devices.  The keyboard, gameport, and timer
devices are special cases in that the input device opens them and asks
them for input. Users of the input device include Intuition and the
console device.
