description Lightweight in-process concurrent programming
long_description The \"greenlet\" package is a spin-off of \
Stackless, a version of CPython that supports \
micro-threads called \"tasklets\". Tasklets run \
pseudo-concurrently (typically in a single or \
a few OS-level threads) and are synchronized \
with data exchanges on \"channels\". \
A \"greenlet\", on the other hand, is a still \
more primitive notion of micro-thread with no \
implicit scheduling\; coroutines, in other \
words. This is useful when you want to control \
exactly when your code runs. You can build \
custom scheduled micro-threads on top of \
greenlet\; however, it seems that greenlets are \
useful on their own as a way to make advanced \
control flow structures. For example, we can \
recreate generators\; the difference with \
Python's own generators is that our generators \
can call nested functions and the nested \
functions can yield values too. Additionally, \
you don't need a \"yield\" keyword. See the \
example in test_generator.py. \
Greenlets are provided as a C extension module \
for the regular unmodified interpreter.
