event-driven
     
         a kind of program, such as a graphical user
        interface, with a main loop which just waits for events to
        occur.  each event has an associated handler which is passed
        the details of the event, e.g. mouse button 3 pressed at
        position 355, 990.
     
        for example, x window system and most visual basic
        application programs are event-driven.
     
        see also callback.
