Thanks! The main reason for the question, though, is just curiosity from playing with and learning the Twisted API, not necessarily getting the example working :)
A more direct question would have been - is there a Twisted reactor which provides a blocking call instead of a callback? Is there an accepted "best" way of wrapping an non-blocking async API with callbacks into a blocking synchronous one? - Andrey On Thu, Apr 22, 2010 at 12:40 AM, Alexandre Quessy <alexan...@quessy.net>wrote: > Hello Andrey, > May I recommend you to look at Twisted Words?
