Maybe calling directly the event function is what you need (for immediate event processing, without going in the Windows depths). There is (was ?) a function named post-event that places an event in the event queue. Apparently this function has been removed from the current version of CG (I never used this function but it was documented in the ref. guide of CG 2.0).
