This introduces the same problem you noted with my original proposal,

Since nobody else mentioned this...
Python classes have a magic method called __del__ which is usually
called just before an object is garbage-collected. Further, Python
uses reference-counting to tell when an object is no longer
accessible. This means that if your resource classes define __del__
7; in parents"%self.name)
func.__doc__ = source.__doc__
return func
doc_inherit = DocInherit
Combining docstrings (as suggested by Jean-Paul Calderone), and
taking proper care of classmethods and staticmethods, are left
as an exercise to the reader.
Have fun,
Shai.
