New submission from slytomcat:
I think that functionality of threading.Timer class can be easily extended to
generate the sequence of runs with specified period. The idea comes from the
GLib.timeout_add function.
Run method of threading.Timer should look like:
def run(self):
"""Continue execution after wait till function returns True"""
while(not self.finished.wait(self.interval)):
if not self.function(*self.args, **self.kwargs):
break
self.finished.set()
