This has to do with Komodo. I cannot use Python 2.4, because numpy is
broken on my machine for that release for reasons unknown. I want to
use 2.6 anyway. But when I use Python 2.6 and Komodo 3.5, it runs slow

Okay, with your help I've figured it out. Instructions are below, but
read the caveat by Ben Fenny in this thread. All this stuff is good for
one default version of Python only. The PYTHONPATH described below, for

I don't think I've quite got it.
The application I'm writing has some similarities to an interactive
shell. Like an interactive shell, it executes arbitrary code that it
receives from an input stream. When it gets an exception, it should
create an informative message, regardless of the type of
The traceback routine prints out stuff like,
NameError: global name 'foo' is not defined
NameError is a standard exception type.
What if I want to print out something like that?

from the __str__ member of the exception object
Yeah. I got it.
exec "foo = 555" in globals(), locals() does the trick.

Python does it right. C is allowed to do it anyway it likes, which was
a stupifyingly horrible decision, IMHO.
Way back when, there was a language named Pascal. I lobbied the Pascal
standards committee to define the modulus operator correctly, which they
eventually did. To my astonishment, they

How does one execute arbitrary text as code within a module's context?
I've got some code that compiles some text and then executes it. When
the string is "print 'Hello'", it prints "Hello". I get no exception
when I compile and execute "foo = 555". If I then compile and exec
"print foo", I get
