* if *tb* is not ``None``, it prints a header ``Traceback (most recent
call last):``
* it prints the exception *etype* and *value* after the stack trace
* if *etype* is :exc:`SyntaxError` and *value* has the appropriate format, it
prints the line where the syntax error occurred with a caret indicating the
approximate position of the error.
* if *type(value)* is :exc:`SyntaxError` and *value* has the appropriate
format, it prints the line where the syntax error occurred with a caret
indicating the approximate position of the error.

The optional *limit* argument has the same meaning as for :func:`print_tb`.
If *chain* is true (the default), then chained exceptions (the
:attr:`__cause__` or :attr:`__context__` attributes of the exception) will be
printed as well, like the interpreter itself does when printing an unhandled
exception.

The *etype* argument is ignored and inferred from the type of *value*.
