Python: shortcut for writing decorators which accept arguments?

Question

Does the Python standard library have a shortcut for writing decorators which accept arguments?

For example, if I want to write a decorator like with_timeout(timeo

Answer 1

I tend to write my decorators as classes to be honest

class TestWithArgs(object):
    def __init__(self, *deco_args, **deco_kwargs):
        self.deco_args = deco_args
        self.deco_kwargs = deco_kwargs
    def __call__(self, func):
        def _wrap(self, *args, **kwargs):
            print "Blah blah blah"
            return func(*args, **kwargs)
        return _wrap

Its nothing if not slightly clearer
