@ -42,6 +42,14 @@ The module defines the following functions:
:term:`file <file object>` or :term:`file-like object` to
receive the output.
.. note::
The meaning of the *limit* parameter is different than the meaning
of :const:`sys.tracebacklimit`. A negative *limit* value corresponds to
a positive value of :const:`!sys.tracebacklimit`, whereas the behaviour of
a positive *limit* value cannot be achieved with
:const:`!sys.tracebacklimit`.
.. versionchanged:: 3.5
Added negative *limit* support.
