You might want to have a look at the IPython shell [1]. I personally do
not use it myself, but I thought to remember that it had some feature
like this (perhaps not dump _one function_, but all the input, which you
then only need to cleanup).

A quick glance revealed f.ex. the history and edit functionality [2] --
a bit more digging might really show up the thing you are looking for.
