Basic usage:

def main():
    a = 123
    b = 0
    return a / b

if __name__ == '__main__':
    import ei
    ei.patch() # overwrites sys.excepthook

    main()

Unpatch to recover sys.excepthook:

ei.unpatch()

Context manager:

with ei.capture():
    main()

# The exception hook is recovered here

Lazy patch:
