variadic 0.1.4

Decorator for very-variadic functions

variadic is a Python (2.7+ and 3.4+) function decorator to write variadic functions accepting a mix of arguments and iterables of those arguments. Oh, and they keep their argspec, so tools doing introspection (Sphinx doc, IDEs, etc.) will work well. No ugly f(*args, **kwds) in your doc!

Note that PEP 448 makes variadic obsolete: if you’re using Python 3.5+, you should keep plain variadic functions and call them with several argument unpackings.
