I don't know anything about it either.
MyError =3D ExceptionList( (ValueError, TypeError) )
"raise MyError" raises an exception that can be handled by any except clause that=20 handles MyError, ValueError, or TypeError.
Perhaps MyError could be a class with base classes ValueError and TypeE= rror.
So where's the need? You can already do:
class MyError(ValueError, TypeError): ...
etc.?
