[PyQt] sip.dump, but getting a string

[Marcus Ottosson]

that’s just asking for trouble ;)

Could you expand on this? Also, I thought this was to just to get some
output from stdout into a file, did you mean for this to go into production?

Still, a top-level wrapper isn’t necessarily a bad thing. There are things
you could catch here that couldn’t normally be caught from within a running
instance of Python. Such as a “Oops, it crashed”-style message with proper
error reporting and notification via email and such.
