I am using different approach to introspection of Python
functions and methods (not all available info output,
only name of the previously called function/method).
I am not sure if this is better than getting sys._getframe()
or not, at least it doesn't use undescore methods ;-)
and "knowns" about all invocation history at once,
could even show source code, etc.

import traceback
def Introspec(msg):
   print traceback.extract_stack()[-2][2] + ":", msg

class AAA:
   def foo(self):
      Introspec("i'm running")

def a(x):
   Introspec('i am running')
   aaa = AAA()
   aaa.foo()

def b(x):
   Introspec('I am running')
   a(x)

b(10)
