Using
{{{
Exception Location: …/dj/views.py, line 28, in form_valid
}}}
instead of
{{{
Exception Location: …/dj/views.py in form_valid, line 28
}}}
would allow for easier copy'n'paste of the location for going there in an
editor.
~~The format ``fname:lnum`` is usually handled there to go to the line
number there directly.~~
By default this does not work as good as it could then, since browsers
will not include the ":" on double-click (tested Firefox and qutebrowser),
but the "text-select" CSS property can be used for this, which then
selected it with a single click already. Ref:
