Cooperative multitasking (again...)

[Kenneth Gangstoe <sphair@...>]

Hi!

I've browsed the list-archive, and several mails bring up this topic of
cooperative multitasking, but somehow the threads always die out before
a solution is clear. 

Looking through the Lua 4.1 API, there are these exciting new functions
about threads, but what I *really* miss, is the stop-and-continue-later
functions, which would make cooperative multitasking something done in
no-time. Have anyone patched LUA to provide this functionality, or done
something else which gives the same functionality?

Are there any plans to officially add this?
