If something raises a WindowsError, str(sys.exc_info()[1]) contains something like: [Error 183] Cannot create a file when that file already exists: <file/directory>
sys.exc_info() is how I get the error code from inside an except clause in the first place. Or is there something I'm missing here? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
