Sorry for the delay in getting back to you...

Actually, I believe for most users doing that through programming
would be harder...

So, the code that creates it right now is at
org.python.pydev.editor.correctionassist.docstrings.AssistDocString,
and I believe it's easy to follow (I know the real problem is not
changing that, but creating a build), but if you provide a patch, I
can take care of distributing ;-)

Also note that right now that code only creates a docstring, but in
the future it should support updating it too (so, providing external
programming would be harder on that situation too).

Cheers,
