-:mod:`dummy_thread` --- Drop-in replacement for the :mod:`thread` module
-========================================================================
-
-.. module:: dummy_thread
- :synopsis: Drop-in replacement for the thread module.
-
-
-This module provides a duplicate interface to the :mod:`thread` module. It is
-meant to be imported when the :mod:`thread` module is not provided on a
-platform.
-
-Suggested usage is::
-
- try:
- import thread as _thread
- except ImportError:
- import dummy_thread as _thread
-
-Be careful to not use this module where deadlock might occur from a thread
-being created that blocks waiting for another thread to be created. This often
-occurs with blocking I/O.
