That's not true. Here's a random example of a GDB command definition:
c = add_cmd ("directory", class_files, directory_command, _("\
Add directory DIR to beginning of search path for source files.\n\
Forget cached info on source file locations and line positions.\n\
DIR can also be $cwd for the current working directory, or $cdir for the\n\
directory in which the source file was compiled into object code.\n\
With no argument, reset the search path to $cdir:$cwd, the default."),
&cmdlist);
What is that if not a doc string?
