Greenlets are lightweight coroutines for in-process concurrent
programming.
The "greenlet" package is a spin-off of `Stackless`_, a version of
CPython that supports micro-threads called "tasklets". Tasklets run
pseudo-concurrently (typically in a single or a few OS-level threads)
and are synchronized with data exchanges on "channels".
A "greenlet", on the other hand, is a still more primitive notion of
micro-thread with no implicit scheduling; coroutines, in other words.
This is useful when you want to control exactly when your code runs.
You can build custom scheduled micro-threads on top of greenlet;
however, it seems that greenlets are useful on their own as a way to
make advanced control flow structures. For example, we can recreate
generators; the difference with Python's own generators is that our
generators can call nested functions and the nested functions can
yield values too. (Additionally, you don't need a "yield" keyword. See
the example in `test_generator.py
<https://github.com/python-greenlet/greenlet/blob/adca19bf1f287b3395896a8f41f3f4fd1797fdc7/src/greenlet/tests/test_generator.py#L1>`_).
Greenlets are provided as a C extension module for the regular unmodified
interpreter.

Who is using Greenlet?
======================
There are several libraries that use Greenlet as a more flexible
alternative to Python's built in coroutine support:
- `Concurrence`_
- `Eventlet`_
- `Gevent`_
.. _Concurrence: http://opensource.hyves.org/concurrence/

.. _Gevent: http://www.gevent.org/
Getting Greenlet
================
The easiest way to get Greenlet is to install it with pip::
pip install greenlet
