Python tracebacks only contain line/file information about Python files, not C files. Here you raise an exception with a C statement, and catch and print it in the very next line. The exception doesn't exit from Python code so there are no lines to print. What line/file data you do expect to see? If you want to see C line/file informnation you have to use a debugger like gdb, as Steve Holden said. Carl Banks -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
