Description-en: simple library for asynchronous processing in Emacs
async.el is a module for doing asynchronous processing in Emacs. The
most common application is to make dired move and rename files
asynchronously i.e. in the background. Then the user need not wait
for the move or copy to complete before they can use Emacs for other
tasks.
