On second thought, maybe it would be better to optionally chain to the existing sys.excepthook instead of assuming it writes to stderr. The above code would become:
That looks just great. I understand you're leaving tomorrow, so I'll probably try converting it to C while you're away. I expect I should be able to find some time. I'll make an issue for it if you haven't already, and submit it for review there.
I don't imagine it will be too hard, but I haven't really done any C API hacking at the level of creating an inner function. I should be able to figure it out though.
Thanks, and have a good trip.
Thanks, Sean. It's issue 8214, you should already be nosy on it. I used a slightly different method there, designed to remove a reference to sys.excepthook if not chaining, but the principle is the same. I'm not sure about the closure aspect of this in C. You could do it with a global variable, but I'm not wild about that. Maybe you can ask on python-dev for suggestions. I'll be checking email occasionally while I'm away. -- Eric.
