It should not be too difficult. I suggest you to read this document ( http://language-binding.net/pyplusplus/documentation/architecture.html#code-generation-engine ), especially "code creators" sections. Then take a look on 'pyplusplus/file_writers/( single_file.py and multiple_files.py ) modules. pyplusplus/code_creators/algorithm.py has some code, that helps to work with "code creators tree".
