Printing an exception is defined as printing the exception message, which currently is e.args[0]. We will not change that as it would break code worldwide. To print more, the class name can be used directly or as a key into a dict of replacements or replacement functions. Questions and vague ideas should be directed to python-list. Fleshed out ideas can go to python-ideas. >>> {}['d'] Traceback (most recent call last): File "<pyshell#0>", line 1, in <module> {}['d'] KeyError: 'd' >>> try: {}['d'] except Exception as e: print(e) 'd' >>> try: {}['d'] except Exception as e: print(e.args) ('d',) >>> try: {}['d'] except Exception as e: print(f'{e.__class__.__name__}: {e}') # Reproduce standard report.
