Yeah, but especially in that case I think it would be nice if the traceback printed by the system (if all this doesn't get caught at an outer level) could show both the traceback from the handler and the traceback that it was trying to handle -- I've had many occasions where a trivial bug in the handler blew away the original traceback which was shy enough to make repeating it a pain. -- --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/) _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
