Its not brain surgery, but you want 1) Apply the preparser, possibly other input transformations
2) handle syntax errors from the preparser and show an appropriate error (not: a traceback inside the preparser) 3) handle errors from the string -> ast compilation and show an appropriate error 4) put the source into traceback.linecache 5) beautify the traceback IPython does all these things already. Loading code from a file is just loading + evaluating the loaded string.
