Depends a bit what you want.  Python has default arguments, * and **
style args and no static type information, so it's harder to give a
meaningful answer to your question.  You could try Ping's "inpect"
module, which is part of Python 2.1 but can also be found at

    http://www.lfw.org/python/inspect.py

which has a "getargspec" function (amongst much other stuff!) that
gets all the information in a neat form.

Cheers,
M.
