+ *
+ * \details
+ * This block produces a stream of samples based on an input
+ * vector. In C++, this is a std::vector<T>, and in Python,
+ * this is either a list or tuple. The data can repeat infinitely
+ * until the flowgraph is terminated by some other event or, the
+ * default, run the data once and stop.
+ *
+ * The vector source can also produce stream tags with the
+ * data. Pass in a vector of gr::tag_t objects and they will be
+ * emitted based on the specified offset of the tag.
+ *
+ * GNU Radio provides a utility Python module in gr.tag_utils to
+ * convert between tags and Python objects:
+ * gr.tag_utils.python_to_tag.
+ *
+ * We can create tags as Python lists (or tuples) using the list
+ * structure [int offset, pmt key, pmt value, pmt srcid]. It is
+ * important to define the list/tuple with the values in the
+ * correct order and with the correct data type. A python
+ * dictionary can also be used using the keys: "offset", "key",
+ * "value", and "srcid" with the same data types as for the lists.
+ *
+ * When given a list of tags, the vector source will emit the tags
+ * repeatedly by updating the offset relative to the vector stream
+ * length. That is, if the vector has 500 items and a tag has an
+ * offset of 0, that tag will be placed on item 0, 500, 1000,
+ * 1500, etc.
