Python global exception handling

I want to catch KeyboardInterrupt globally, and deal with it nicely. I don't want to encase my entire script in a huge try/except statement. Is there any way to do this?

You could change sys.excepthook if you really don't want to use a try/except.

import sys
def my_except_hook(exctype, value, traceback):
  if exctype == KeyboardInterrupt:
    print("Handler code goes here")
else:
  sys.__excepthook__(exctype, value, traceback)
sys.excepthook = my_except_hook
