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.
