Ah. I misunderstood what you needed.

I found this sort of thing to be quite useful, especially in cgi scripting:

import sys, traceback, string

def main(argv):
    try:
        all_my_code_here(argv[1])
        return 0
    except:
        s = string.join(apply(traceback.format_exception, sys.exc_info()))
        print s					# Do what you like with it here
        return 1

if __name__ == '__main__':
    sys.exit(main(sys.argv))
