< guzzles> Powered by our patented "Global Interpreter Lock," the Python Foundation is pleased to announce TrollThreads, Python's latest language feature.
< guzzles> A collaborative effort between The Python Foundation and PyFLTK, TrollThreads ensures that no two routines in your program will ever run simultaneously or exhibit other threadlike behavior.
< guzzles> TrollThreads API should be almost instantly familiar to any developer with experience writing threaded code in other languages, with important added functionality. Namely, that it doesn't actually work.
< guzzles> Should you actually want to take advantage of traditional threading, please use the "subprocess" module and a clusterfuck of IPC or inquire in our IRC channel, where many helpful developers will angrily explain that threads are *obviously not what you REALLY wanted*.
