Asynchronous eval



Description
asynceval is a simple tool for asynchronous evals. It is mainly of use in Glish programming. You give a command that is to be eval()'ed and then you can wait for the result. It's particularly useful for commands that may fail for some unexpected reason. The Glish interpreter is not then blocked.

The events recognized are:

run (accepted)
the argument is a command string to be eval()'ed.
result (emitted)
The argument is the result of the eval().
