Hello, Marc,

as far as I know, Events typemaps are especially prepared for use with
Inline (see Inline or the Event tutorial), but I'm sure they can be
used another way as well. Maybe an additional reference can be added
(as you suggested), or you can use the same mechanism that is used by
Inline to find the typemaps? (I'm not familiar with the usual ways of
making typemaps generally available, so these are just assumptions.)
