Thanks. I adapted it a bit:
def debug(foo):
print foo, 'is:'
exec('pprint.pprint(' + foo + ')')
But I'm getting "NameError: name 'foo' is not defined," since foo is
not defined in this scope. (The function works beautifully when I'm
dealing with global variables, which is very rarely).

use eval:
def debug(s):
print s, 'is'
pprint.pprint(eval(s))

Hi all,
I've written the following simple macro called debug(aname, avalue)
that prints out the name of an expression and its value:
def debug(aname, avalue):
print aname, 'is':
pprint.pprint(avalue)
An example call is:
debug('compose(f1,f2)', compose(f1,f2))
Writing the exact same thi
