This will work, but I'm getting out of my depth as to whether its a good
idea to do or not.
import sys
def testFunc():
''' Here is my doc string'''
n = sys._getframe().f_code.co_name
print eval(n).__doc__
testFunc()
The issue being that n is a simply a string containing the name of the
function. You'll need the actual function itself to get its docstring.

Greetings,
Don't know the daily limit for dumb questions so I will ask one or
more.
In a function I can use the statement n =
sys._getframe().f_code.co_name to get the name of the current
function. Given that I can get the name how can I print the __doc__
string? I cant use the following, it will tell me to bugger off as the
string has no such attribute.
def spam(self):
n = sys._getframe().f_code.co_name
print n.__doc__ #Wrong
print __doc__ #No good either
#....
thanx,
