Agreed, I'm just fretting about it ...

> First of all that should not be a global setting, secondly this is currently not possible in logging either.

True, but you have pointed out in the past that this *is* a problem - so it would be good to solve it.

> A better solution would be to do what warnings does and making it possible provide a stacklevel to the caller finder.

I'm not that familiar with how warnings does it, but I will take a look.

Thanks for the suggestions.

BTW re. your patch - where you say "os.co_filename", do you mean "co.co_filename"?
