5 Twisted Internet: Asynchronous I/O and Events.
7 Twisted Internet is a collection of compatible event-loops for Python. It contains
8 the code to dispatch events to interested observers and a portable API so that
9 observers need not care about which event loop is running. Thus, it is possible
10 to use the same code for different loops, from Twisted's basic, yet portable,
11 select-based loop to the loops of various GUI toolkits like GTK+ or Tk.
