Description: Library for deferred execution
Dex is a library supporting "Deferred Execution" with the explicit goal of
integrating with GNOME and GTK-based applications. It provides primatives
for supporting futures in a variety of ways with both read-only and writable
views. Additionally, integration with existing asynchronous-based APIs is
provided through the use of wrapper promises.
.
"Fibers" are implemented which allows for writing synchronous looking code
which calls asynchronous APIs from GIO underneath.
