_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     Very rarely-used function. This function is used to emit an expose
     event signals on a widget. This function is not normally used
     directly. The only time it is used is when propagating an expose
     event to a child 'NO_WINDOW' widget, and that is normally done
     using 'gtkContainerPropagateExpose'.

_U_s_a_g_e:

     gtkWidgetSendExpose(object, event)

_A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s:

'object': ['GtkWidget']  a 'GtkWidget'

 'event': ['GdkEvent']  a expose 'GdkEvent'

_D_e_t_a_i_l_s:

     If you want to force an area of a window to be redrawn,  use
     'gdkWindowInvalidateRect' or 'gdkWindowInvalidateRegion'. To cause
     the redraw to be done immediately, follow that call with a call to
     'gdkWindowProcessUpdates'.

_V_a_l_u_e:

     [integer]  return from the event signal emission ('TRUE' if  the
     event was handled)

_A_u_t_h_o_r(_s):
