I believe the answer is that Exceptions not derived from Exception shouldn't be thrown; it's basically a deprecated feature and has been for a long time. I've never seen it happen. Add another "except" clause and use it to bitch at the user for throwing something that isn't an Exception :-) You won't find any other code that throws anything but an exception, unless either you or your user wrote it. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
