I'd love to know if there's a lib for generating annotations like this from source comments. I've always loved docs tha include the code for reference, helps to see what's actually going on :)

Docco is CoffeeScript/JavaScript, Rocco is Ruby, Shocco is Shell, and there's one more (that I know of) ... Pycco for Python:

http://github.com/fitzgen/pycco

And a first cousin, once removed: Dox (JavaScript):

http://visionmedia.github.com/dox/

Dox seems to just be explicitly marked documentation, not every comment.

Pycco claims to support Python, Ruby, JavaScript, CoffeeScript, Scheme, and Lua.

I just submitted one earlier this morning[1].
