pydb (http://bashdb.sf.net0 has the ability to do noninteractive line tracing. See http://bashdb.sourceforge.net/pydb/pydb/lib/subsubsection-set.html or the showmedo demo. It would be kind of neat to extend this to allow for method/fn tracing. Alas the simple hack I tried, didn't work because of code obscurities. (The code could stand to use a rewrite.) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
