(synopsis "Event loop loosely modelled after libevent")
(description
"libev is a full-featured and high-performance event loop that
is loosely modelled after libevent, but without its limitations and
bugs. It is used in GNU Virtual Private Ethernet, rxvt-unicode,
auditd, the Deliantra MORPG Server and Client, and many other
programs.")
"libev provides a full-featured and high-performance event loop that is
loosely modelled after libevent. It includes relative timers, absolute timers
with customized rescheduling, synchronous signals, process status change
events, event watchers dealing with the event loop itself, file watchers, and
limited support for fork events.")
