gevent.httplib support was removed in gevent 1.0, geventhttpclient now provides
that missing functionality.
geventhttpclient uses a fast http parser, written in C, originating from nginx,
extracted and modified by Joyent.
geventhttpclient has been specifically designed for high concurrency, streaming
and support HTTP 1.1 persistent connections. More generally it is designed for
efficiently pulling from REST APIs and streaming APIs like Twitter's.
Safe SSL support is provided by default. geventhttpclient depends on the
certifi CA Bundle. This is the same CA Bundle which ships with the Requests
codebase, and is derived from Mozilla Firefox's canonical set.
Inetutils is a collection of common network programs. It includes:

Python, which allows Python developers to write software that makes use of
services like Amazon S3 and Amazon EC2. You can find the latest, most up to
date, documentation at Read the Docs, including a list of services that are
supported. To see only those features which have been released, check out

Use portend to monitor TCP ports for bound or unbound states.
For example, to wait for a port to be occupied, timing out after 3 seconds::
portend.occupied('www.pkgsrc.org', 80, timeout=3)
Or to wait for a port to be free, timing out after 5 seconds::
portend.free('::1', 80, timeout=5)
The portend may also be executed directly. If the function succeeds, it
returns nothing and exits with a status of 0. If it fails, it prints a
message and exits with a status of 1. For example::
python -m portend localhost:31923 free
(exits immediately)
python -m portend -t 1 localhost:31923 occupied
(one second passes)
Port 31923 not bound on localhost.
