OK. I dug it up, cut out the stuff that was specific to the application,
freshened it up a little, and added a little demo. I don't claim this
is the best possible way to do this (it certainly could be made smarter,
possibly by using python facilities to actually parse the line; right
now it takes a very brute force approach to trying to find variables),
but it served my purposes and perhaps it will help others.
Oh, yeah, and I just added the globals bit without thoroughly testing
it...I think it probably doesn't help much and may be misleading when
the traceback is thrown in an imported module.
Enjoy.
