This was Timmies patch for web2py documenting - and his proposal to follow
numpy standards (a good starting point, I thought, and continue to think,
but too detailed for web2py sources). I got partway thru parsing this down
to what I thought would be useful essentials for web2py;  I need to send
this to Massimo.  In the end, too many people working at once, and no
coherent direction, so this confused the issue / task (too many / no chiefs;
incongruent effort), and I just dropped it until this aspect cooled (anyway,
other things in my life took priority at the time).

I haven't tried prettytable (write python code to generate ascii table; but
could be useful to dump existing data).

The shell scripts for making web2py specific sphinx docs I don't think apply
to your question of what tools do I use to create rest (that is, the
structured format of the content).

But bottom line is still - you can easily just use a normal text editor....

To get a feel for this - to convince yourself that as a edit / contributor
this is "sane", just look at one of the "show source" links on any of the
sphinx docs
e.g. http://sphinx.pocoo.org/_sources/intro.txt  of
http://sphinx.pocoo.org/intro.html;
other sphinx docs listed here: http://sphinx.pocoo.org/examples.html
