When I do this, mine says "StandardError: <unprintable StandardError
object>" on both Python 2.4 and 2.5. I tried setting them to unicode,
but that didn't help. One way around this may be to subclass the
errors you want and do some custom processing that way.

You may even need to change you computer's default character set to
make this work. This guy did it for one of his programs:

This seems to work:
.... if tb:
.... lines = traceback.format_tb(tb)
.... for i, line in zip(range(len(lines)), lines):
.... lines = lines.decode('utf8')
.... lines.insert(0, u'Traceback (most recent call last):\n')
.... else:
.... lines = []
.... msg = str(exctype).split('.')[-1] + u': ' + unicode(value)
.... lines.append(msg)
.... print u''.join(lines)
........ def __str__(self):
.... return self.args[0]
....Traceback (most recent call last):
