I have a problem using docstrings with decorators. Given the following example: def decorator(f): def _decorator(): print 'decorator active' f() return _decorator @decorator def foo(): '''the magic foo function''' print 'this is function foo' help(foo) Now the help doesn't show me the docstring of foo as expected, it shows: Help on function _decorator in module __main__: _decorator() Without the decorator, the help is correct: Help on function foo in module __main__: foo() the magic foo function I know, that the function foo is wrapped by the decorator, and so the function object is not the function foo any more. But what is a nice solution to get the docstring (and the help) as expected?
