Re: [Gexiv2] Extract all keywords from image Python GExiv2

[Jason Moore <moorepants gmail com>]

Robert,

Is there a way to pull docstrings into the python code from the underlying
libs?

The method names are mostly self explanatory but it would be great to get
something more useful when typing help(metadata.get_tag_multple). Or is
there documentation that I'm missing that already exists?

If there isn't I'm happy to write some doc strings as I figure out how to
use the library.
