Traceback objects represent a stack trace of an exception. A
traceback object is created when an exception occurs. When the search
for an exception handler unwinds the execution stack, at each unwound
level a traceback object is inserted in front of the current
-traceback. When an exception handler is entered, the stack trace is
+traceback. When an exception handler is entered
+(see also section \ref{try}), the stack trace is
made available to the program as \verb\sys.exc_traceback\. When the
program contains no suitable handler, the stack trace is written
(nicely formatted) to the standard error stream; if the interpreter is
