Hi: I'm working on Orca, a screen reader for the GNOME platform, and it's being done in Python. Python is working really for us right now and I'm quite happy with many aspects of it.
Is there a function like CTRL-Backspace in Python? There is a hang in my code somewhere and I'm unable to find it. When the hang occurs, all "print" commands seem to stop and I can only recover by killing the app via Ctrl-Z and kill. In these cases, Ctrl-C doesn't work even though I've registered signal handlers: signal.signal(signal.SIGINT, shutdownAndExit) signal.signal(signal.SIGQUIT, shutdownAndExit) What I'd really like to be able to do is to use something like Java's CTRL-Backspace to dump a stack trace in these instances just to give me a clue about where my code is during the hang. I've tried using sys.settrace() to track things, but it seems to introduce something into the system that prevents me from being able to reproduce the hang. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
