[Python-Dev] Exception tracebacks

[Tom Mullins]

I do not know where cleanup_traceback (in run.py) is called, or really
anything about the inner workings of python, but there is a problem with
sys.tracebacklimit. If it is set to one or zero, "** IDLE Internal
Exception" is printed in the traceback for any exception, not internal ones.
I think tracebacklimit is applied to the traceback before cleanup_traceback
is called, but should be applied after. I imagine the solution is not that
simple, and you may already be aware of the problem, but thanks anyway.
