[Tutor] Universal error handler

[Matti Niemelä]

Hi!

Just started learning Python, and I was wondering if there is a way to 
catch an error or errors (like EOFError) whenever it occures during the 
script? The script (the program) wouldn't have any handling for that 
error itself, but a seperate block would handle that at the start or the 
end of the file.

For a simple 200 line script I made the whole thing into a function, and 
at the end put:

def main():
     # Do the program itself..

# The very end
try:
     main()
except EOFError:
     # Tell something went horribly wrong


I find this way of doing it disfunctional when having lots of code. Any 
ideas?
