Description: =========
         gevent_
        =========
        
        gevent_ is a coroutine-based Python networking library.
        
        Features include:
        
        * Fast event loop based on libev_.
        * Lightweight execution units based on greenlet_.
        * Familiar API that re-uses concepts from the Python standard library.
        * Cooperative sockets with SSL support.
        * DNS queries performed through c-ares_ or a threadpool.
        * Ability to use standard library and 3rd party modules written for standard blocking sockets
        
        gevent_ is `inspired by eventlet`_ but features more consistent API,
        simpler implementation and better performance. Read why others `use
        gevent`_ and check out the list of the `open source projects based on
        gevent`_.
        
        gevent_ is written and maintained by `Denis Bilenko`_ and is licensed under MIT license.
        
        
        get gevent
        ==========
        
        Install Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.3 or 3.4 along with the greenlet_
        extension. Or install PyPy 2.6 or above (but not PyPy3).
        
        Download the latest release from `Python Package Index`_ or clone `the repository`_.

        and `twitter (@gevent)`_.
        
        
        installing from github
        ======================
        
        To install the latest development version:
        
          pip install cython git+git://github.com/gevent/gevent.git#egg=gevent
        
        
        running tests
        =============
        
        There are a few different ways to run the tests. To simply run the
        tests on one version of Python during development, try this:
        
          python setup.py build
        
          cd greentest
        
          PYTHONPATH=.. python testrunner.py --config ../known_failures.py
        
        Before submitting a pull request, it's a good idea to run the tests
        across all supported versions of Python, and to check the code quality
        using pep8 and pyflakes. This is what is done on Travis CI. Locally it
        can be done using tox:
        
          pip install tox
        
          tox
