Try something like this: >>> def print_vars(vars_dict=None): ... if vars_dict is None: ... vars_dict = globals() ... for var, value in vars_dict.items(): ... print '%s = %r' % (var, value) ... >>> myPlace = 'right here' >>> myTime = 'right now' >>> print_vars() print_vars = <function print_vars at 0x401e0d84> __builtins__ = <module '__builtin__' (built-in)> myTime = 'right now' myPlace = 'right here' __name__ = '__main__' __doc__ = None -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
