Signals

Hi All:

I know that I want to make use of signals in my project.
I'm not sure
how to use them, though. It appears that the handling
function has to
have arguments like this: sender, instance, signal, *args,
**kwargs.
Can someone define these arguments?

Basically, I want to hook into the post_save signal of
several
different objects (User, ContentType, etc). Any help is
appreciated!

I tried to document signals a bit on the wiki:

http://cod
e.djangoproject.com/wiki/Signals

However, because there's no official documentation (that I
know of),  
what's on the wiki is incomplete and potentially
inaccurate. I've  
used signals without any problems, however, so it should be
a good  
starting point.
