Python catch any exception, and print or log traceback with variable values

Question

When I catch unexpected error with sys.excepthook

import sys
import traceback

def handleException(excType, excValue, trace):
    print 'error'
    traceback.print_exception(excType, excValue, trace)

sys.excepthook = handleException

h = 1
k = 0

print h/k

This is output I get

error
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "test.py", line 13, in <module>
      print h/k
ZeroDivisionError: integer division or modulo by zero

How can I include variable values (h, k, ...) in traceback simillar to http://www.doughellmann.com/PyMOTW/cgitb/ ? When I include cgitb result is same.

EDIT:

Great answer I only modified it like this so it logs trace in a file

def handleException(excType, excValue, trace):
    cgitb.Hook(logdir=os.path.dirname(__file__),
      display=False,
      format='text')(excType, excValue, trace)

By looking at the source of cgitb.py, you should be able to use something like this:

import sys
import traceback
import cgitb

def handleException(excType, excValue, trace):
    print 'error'
    cgitb.Hook(format="text")(excType, excValue, trace)

sys.excepthook = handleException

h = 1
k = 0

print h/k
