I pointed you to two examples… but you can also write it in PHP (which 
from the request, I assume you know).

Create a new command and set input to ‘Document’, output format to 
‘Snippet’, and then write a command a la:

	#!/usr/bin/php
	<?php

	$namespace = NULL;

	$document = file_get_contents('php://stdin');
	if(preg_match('/^\s*namespace (.+);/m', $document, $matches))
		$namespace = $matches[1];

	switch($namespace) {
		case 'foo':
			echo "Documentation for $\{1:foo}…\n";
		break;

		case 'bar':
			echo "Documentation for $\{1:bar}…\n";
		break;

		default:
			echo "Documentation for $\{1:unknown}…\n";
		break;
	}

You would have to create a grammar rule for the PHP grammar like this:

	{	name = 'meta.namespace.$1.php';
		begin = '\bnamespace ([A-Za-z\\]+)';
		end = '\z';
		patterns = ( { include = '$self'; } );
	},

This should make the scope contain ‘meta.namespace.LG\API.php’ when 
the caret is below the namespace directive (declaring that namespace).

Given the complexity of the PHP grammar (it’s written as injections 
for the HTML grammar), I’d only suggest this to people who are 
experienced with TextMate language grammars.
