writing of a scheduler and the execution of scheduled tasks in a scheduler? If so, you can implement it today (I would suggest using the heapq module, and/or the pair heap I posted to this list a few weeks ago), or you can use a previously existing mainloop for handling events (wx.App().MainLoop() works well, you just need to write a wx.EvtHandler subclass). I did a dirty hack in the asyncore.py module, and now my asyncore objects have methods for timers (self.start_timer, self.cancel_timer, etc.) But I think that timer scheduling is a job for a python interpreter and it must be hidden from an end programmer.

Regards.
