  I would recommend to write them in the POD (Plain Old Documentation)
  format which makes it very seasy to write/update a man page.
  (see http://qa.debian.org/man-pages.html for pointers to documentations).

  I would NOT recommend to use the native manpage format (nroff) nor the
  DocBook SGML format since writing a manpage with them is rather
  respectively confusing/painful, IMHO.
