I wonder if it's useful to update the cgitb module, in particular the html output. I see some possible improvements:

1. In both text and html versions: When a module is called, there are no parameters (displayed as '()'). I think they are unnecessary. Perhaps the parentheses should be removed? Perhaps it's better to keep them for backward compatibility? ### example for the text version ### $ python3 demo.py [...] /home/stephane/src/cgitest/demo.py in () 7 def func1(a, b): [...] ### end of example ### 2. In html version only: a. If the executed code is in : in this case, it is not shown in the html version because the square brackets are interpreted as a html tag (see the picture in attachement). b. Update the style of the html or/and using html5. It would be prettier but it will be a big change for probably too few benefits. What do you think about them? I can report bugs and send pull-requests for them but I would prefer to get feedbacks before.

2a is definitely a bug. Please open an issue on the bug tracker for. 1 can be considered as a bug or as a request for enhancement. Needed to look at the code closer. And 2b is a separate request for enhancement. All three should be separate issues.
