Ops! There is a misprint here, I meant "writing a facility to run iterators in TKINTER", not in Twisted. Twisted has already everything, even too much. I would like to have a better support for asynchronous programming in the standard library, for people not needing the full power of Twisted. I also like to keep my dependencies at a minimum.
