It would be great if I could go into the project
properties, select "Builders" and click "New..." and
there would be a "Python" option there. This would
allow me to run setup.py and epydoc as a project
builder.

The reason that a "program" type builder isn't good
enough is that the "program" builder has broken multi-
platform support. In windows I have to say {search_
path:python.exe} and in linux it is {search_path:
python}, with no way to automate that.

Having a python builder would be just as well.

I might also submit a request to the eclipse team to
fix this multi-platform problem with program builders,
which would also solve this problem well enough.
