macroeco.misc.inherit_docstring_from(cls)

This decorator modifies the decorated function’s docstring by replacing occurrences of ‘%(super)s’ with the docstring of the method of the same name from the class cls.

If the decorated method has no docstring, it is simply given the docstring of cls method.
