Making sense of Stackless

[Darrell]

Still playing.

Was wondering how to simulate threads with out adding special calls.
This was one idea but it blows up.

def dispatch(frame, event, arg):
    caller=continuation.caller()
    caller.jump()

sys.settrace(dispatch)

If this worked, I'd put a list of continuations in the dispatch call.

Also a threading module in stackless would have to switch threads when an
I/O call blocks.
