Mercurial's documentation is kept in reStructuredText format, which is a simple plain text format that's easy to read and edit: http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html It's also convertible to a variety of other formats including standard UNIX man page format and HTML. To do this, you'll need to install the rst2html and rst2man tools, which are part of Docutils: http://docutils.sourceforge.net/ The rst2man tool is still in their so-called "sandbox". The above page has links to tarballs of both Docutils and their sandbox. Use the Makefile in this directory to generate the man and HTML pages.
