Ah. Well, coil could be turned into a python module, together with a shell script/.bat that uses twistd to run it. Once you do the promised event loop refactor, that is. :)
What module organization should that be? Tv suggested twisted.internet.eventloops.{gtk, select, poll, ...}
I like the idea of calling them "eventloops", or basically anything other than "main". "main" tends to clash with functions in my modules, and "eventloop" gives a clearer idea of its purpose. Tv's suggestion looks reasonable to me... although aren't there really two types of modules being grouped together there: 1) Alternatives to the select-based loop (poll, win32) 2) Add-ons that integrate Twisted's loop with other loops, e.g. gtk, Tk, etc... Or do the 2nd type all assume a select-based loop? If that's the case, I'd suggest they are generalised (it'd be nice for Tk to work with the win32 loop). I guess then I'd be proposing something like: * twisted.internet.eventloops.{select, poll, win32} * twisted.internet.eventloops.addons.{gtk, tk, wx, asyncore?, ...} I'm not really thrilled with the name "addons", but you get the idea. -Andrew.
