1. threads, yes 2. http://docs.python.org/lib/module-select.html (if on non-Windows system) 3. http://docs.python.org/lib/module-asyncore.html (ditto) 4. http://twistedmatrix.com/ Interesting but maybe not production-ready code: 1. http://kamaelia.sourceforge.net/Home 2. http://poshmodule.sourceforge.net/ > b) If the script dies prematurely, e.g. I mistyped something and Python > throws an exception, it is caught by the generic handler at the bottom. > However, the socket does not seem to be cleaned up properly, as if I try to > run it again immediately I get an error that it is still in use. lsof > doesn't show it in use though, which seems weird.
