I've been using my own custom lightweight auth system for years...
I was just curious what the last line does.
I thought any function that returned a function was *already* a
decorator!?

def access_control(function):
        """
        Decorator that denies access without authentication.
        """

        def new_function(function, *parameters, **keywords):
                """
                Adds a wrapper requiring authentication.
                """

                if ("logged_in" in cherrypy.session)
and                      \
                   cherrypy.session["logged_in"]:
                        return function(*parameters, **keywords)
                else:
                        raise turbogears.redirect("/access_control_/
log_in")

        return new_function
access_control = turbogears.decorator.decorator(access_control)
