+:mod:`autoGIL` --- Global Interpreter Lock handling in event loops
+==================================================================
+
+.. module:: autoGIL
+ :platform: Mac
+ :synopsis: Global Interpreter Lock handling in event loops.
+ :deprecated:
+.. moduleauthor:: Just van Rossum <just@letterror.com>
+
+
+The :mod:`autoGIL` module provides a function :func:`installAutoGIL` that
+automatically locks and unlocks Python's :term:`Global Interpreter Lock` when
+running an event loop.
+
+.. warning::
+
+ This module has been removed in 3.0.
+
+
+.. exception:: AutoGILError
+
+ Raised if the observer callback cannot be installed, for example because the
+ current thread does not have a run loop.
+
+
+.. function:: installAutoGIL()
+
+ Install an observer callback in the event loop (CFRunLoop) for the current
+ thread, that will lock and unlock the Global Interpreter Lock (GIL) at
+ appropriate times, allowing other Python threads to run while the event loop is
+ idle.
+
+ Availability: OSX 10.1 or later.
