Events are specified by tuples (time, priority, action, argument).
|

As in UNIX, lower priority numbers mean higher priority; in this

way the queue can be maintained as a priority queue. Execution of the

event means calling the action function, passing it the argument.

Remember that in Python, multiple function arguments can be packed

arguments are be packed in a sequence).

The action function may be an instance method so it
|

has another way to reference private data (besides global variables).
|

Parameterless functions or methods cannot be used, however.
