Call colored-traceback with python -m #4

Closed azmeuk closed 7 years ago

This PR should close #3.

Let's imaging a foobar.py file containing raise Exception("too bad").

python foobar.py 

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "foobar.py", line 1, in <module>
    raise Exception("too bad")
Exception: too bad

python -m colored_traceback foobar.py 

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python3.5/runpy.py", line 184, in _run_module_as_main
    "__main__", mod_spec)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.5/runpy.py", line 85, in _run_code
    exec(code, run_globals)
  File "/home/azmeuk/dev/colored-traceback.py/colored_traceback/__main__.py", line 14, in <module>
    exec(code)
  File "foobar.py", line 1, in <module>
    raise Exception("too bad")
Exception: too bad

The main drawback is that the traceback is a bit longer here, but it is usable. The main benefit is that anyone can test colored_traceback without writing any code.
