About txt2man

From Debian's package description

txt2man is program that converts simple texts to manpages easily. The syntax of the ASCII text should looks like the output provided by man(1) program. So, you need write a text file using a visual approach of a manpage and txt2man will convert it. The txt2man(1) manpage is short and sufficient to understand how the program works.

A command to extract comments from source code (src2man) and a command to build an indexed volume from a set of manpages (bookman) are also provided by this package.

txt2man is very useful for programmers and Debian packaging.
