    ack -i "\b(?:raise|except)\b" --python C:\Python25

    ack -i "^\s*(?:raise|except)\s" --python C:\Python25

    But, it seems to me python already has introspection ( Guide to Python introspection ), so this grep/ack probably isn't required, but I perl

      This promises to be the closest that I was looking at

        Asab,

        I suspect that you're asking the wrong question. Grepping like that you'll miss anything uncaught but raised from standard libraries and code, etc. Suggest for python questions that you post a sufficiently detailed description/example of what you actually want to achieve on python-tutor or python-list (aka comp.lang.python). The correct answer probably involves the traceback module.

        -T.
