Try the __dict__ attribute:

>>>class myclass:
...     info="Any old thing"
...     description="A simple structure"
...     def square(self,x):
...         return x*x
...
>>>print myclass.__dict__
{'info': 'Any old thing', '__module__': '__main__', 'square': <function 
square at 0x8154494>, 'description': 'A simple structure', '__doc__': None}

This will give you all the attibutes/methods except the builtins.

HTH,
Paul
