* Package name : libpcl1 Version : 1.6 Upstream Author : Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> * URL : http://www.xmailserver.org/libpcl.html * License : GPL Description : the Portable Coroutine Library (PCL) implements the low level functionality for coroutines Coroutines are a very simple cooperative multitasking environment where the switch from one task to another is done explicitly by a function call. Coroutines are a lot faster than processes or threads switch, since there is no OS kernel involvement for the operation. Also coroutines require much less OS resources than processes of threads. For a more complete definition of the term coroutine see The Art of Computer Programming by Donald E. Knuth. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing-proposed-updates APT policy: (500, 'testing-proposed-updates'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i586) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Kernel: Linux 2.6.8.1des-nv Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
