I've never used Twisted, so I can't say how good it is. All I know is
that what I learned about socket programming in C on OS/2 is still
valid on Windows and on Linux, and in every language I've ever used
(bar JavaScript and ActionScript, which are deliberately sandboxed and
thus don't have direct socket calls available). So take your pick: Go
with Twisted, and bind yourself to a particular library, or go with
BSD sockets, and do the work yourself. Like everything else in
programming, it's a tradeoff.
