It's *not* a good idea - unless the code is *very* short and has no
dependencies on anything else than the stdlib. Please re-read
*carefully* the first point :

- provide minimal *runnable* code exposing the problem

and notice the use of the word "minimal". I *never* suggested that you
post the *whole* code.

This is *not* the error. It's a line number (which is totally useless if
 you don't have the corresponding file). Please re-read what I wrote
about posting *the full traceback*. Tracebacks are not here to be
beautiful on your screen, there here to give you as much possible
informations about what went wrong.

Don't attach files. Reduce your code to the *minimal* *runnable* code
snippet reproducing the problem.

(snip a few hundred lines of code I won't certainly take time to read
unless I'm being paid for fixing 'em)
