dontpanic 0.1.0

Suppress Ctrl+C traceback spam.

🚀 dontpanic

A very simple Python module to suppress KeyboardInterrupt traceback spam when pressing ^C.

Why?

By default, Python screams at you when you press ^C to interrupt a script. (Proper languages like Perl don't do this.)

This module catches KeyboardInterrupt signals and handles them gracefully.

Installation

pip install dontpanic

Usage

import dontpanic

print('Press control-C to interrupt this program')
while True:
    pass  # Press ^C to interrupt

... or with a custom message:

import dontpanic

dontpanic.set_message("Exiting...")

print('Press control-C to interrupt this program')
while True:
    pass  # Press ^C to interrupt
