Eclipse: How can I attach JavaDoc to multiple JAR files?

Question

I am using Eclipse 3.4.1.

I have an external library that consists of a bunch of JAR files, and some HTML JavaDoc. I know that I can attach the HTML JavaDoc to individual JARs by going to their Properties page, JavaDoc location, and setting it there.

But it would be a pain to do this for each individual JAR. Is it possible to do them all at once somehow? The JavaDoc location is the same for them all.

Not really a recommended solution, but you could set it for one of them and then manually edit your project's .classpath file, copy the relevant part and paste it into the other elements. Not that much easier than setting it for each one separately, though.

Also, if you have access to the source files, you could use these instead of the Jar files, which will provide the Javadocs.
