Just set it yourself: >>> import sys >>> sys.tracebacklimit Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'tracebacklimit' >>> sys.tracebacklimit = 3 >>> def bomb(n): ... if n: bomb(n-1) ... else: 1/0 ... >>> bomb(100) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 2, in bomb File "<stdin>", line 2, in bomb File "<stdin>", line 3, in bomb ZeroDivisionError: integer division or modulo by zero Peter -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
