The pages themselves are marked-up text; just use a text editor. Note
that OpenBSD doesn't use groff anymore to render them. Look at
mandoc(1)
mdoc(7) (the suggested format)
man(7) (the legacy format; you may run across it in older pages you're
editing)

As an example, here's mdoc(7) in its text format, via cvsweb:

http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/share/man/man7/mdoc.7?rev=1.93;content-type=text%2Fplain

That's what you would be editing.
