Hello Devrim,

I'm the author of the eclipse plugin. The way I've implemented this was 
very similar to the Visual-Studio-Plugin. I've written a native class which
simply maps the access/modify routines of a text document of our CppTool 
into access/modify routines of the java-class responsible for the editor
of eclipse. This was very simple since only very basic operations need 
to be written.
- get selection text
- set selection area
- set selection text
such things are very common for an editor. So if you find such an 
interface in phyton it would be possible to integrate.

To check the other plugins look at
    EclipseDocumentHelper.cpp/h            (this is the interface 
between CppTool and Eclipse-Editor)
    VCLinebasedTextDocument.cpp/h     (this is the interface between 
CppTool and VisualStudio-Editor)

nice to meet you,
André Baresel

The summer is starting in berlin,
