About PyCrash Project:
PyCrash is a crash handler that handles uncaught exceptions during
program execution and collects information about the program context.
PyCrash can be very useful in report bug information, because the
programmer can easily analyse the program execution context of the
crashed application.

Major information collected by PyCrash in the crash dump is: 

- Information about operating system, Python and Python Standard
  Library version and general information about the program that is 
  crashed (e.g., program name and version, time at witch program 
  started and ended, and so on)
 
- Information about the uncaught exceptions, like the exception type, 
  the context (namely method name) in which the exception occurred and 
  the exception value

- General information about variables state

- Information about the stack of each thread, like the list of stack 
  frames, the variables value in each stack frame, and so on

- General information about source code, like variable and function 
  position in source file that can be useful for the programmer to find
  quickly bugs in source tree

The format of the crash dump file generated by PyCrash is XML, so the
programmer can easily read this file to understand why the program is
crashed.

Now, is also available a GUI browser, named PyCrashViewer, which allows
developers to analyze quickly and easily PyCrash crash dump files in a
graphical manner.

Next version of PyCrash will include at least these features:

- Full support to new-style classes
- Cryptographic functionalities, which allow programmers to cypher crash
dump in order to protected sensible information in crash files.

I'm very pleased to receive your comments and suggests.

Thanks!
