nroff/troff is available on ALL *nix systems, therefore, *roff man-pages are readable on all *nix systems.
I know, I know. But it's time somebody designed a good WYSIWYG editor for man, hiding those details from the writer, that may not know anything about those things, nor have the inclination to learn. Do you know that very few pages of, for example, the gnu utils are translated to, for instance, Spanish? And the existing manpages are obsolete? I don't know about other languages. You (and I) are fortunate not to need the translations, every program is documented in English, but other people... they can't even read the documentation. And one of the problems for translators is having to learn a weird looking "code". There are few enough (gratis) translators!
I have found a program in python, wyneken, that says it can edit/create man pages. I haven't tried it yet.
Give it a shot.

Oh, that sucks.
But I found another one (on this thread) that looks very promising. I still wish I could get LyX working on this aspect, but... I'll make do if I must, and waste less time... - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
