I am trying to understand a bit how the second argument for EvtGetEvent(),
which I shall call 2ndEle from now on, works.  

When 2ndEle = evtWaitForever (= -1), from what I understood, no nilEvents
are passed/created.  Is that the case?  What happens then?  If I use
evtWaitForever and do nothing, does that mean that no events at all are
passed to the application (I assume at all times events are passed to the
system, so it can update its clock, check the alarm, and so on)?  Also,
would 2ndEle < 0 behave like 2ndEle = evtWaitForever?

When 2ndEle > 0, is 2ndEle then the time in some unit (ticks?) the
program/system will wait before start issuing nilEvents?  If not, what is
it then?

What is 2ndEle = noWait ( = 0)?
