writing manpages in pure groff is very dunting task for somebody that
doesn't know it.  I'm getting more annoyed everytime I have to open that
file.
I want to write something readable, be it markdown or asciidoc or pod
(for Pod::Man).

Unfortunately converting manpages is not exactly an enjoable task for
me, so I'd be happy if somebody with more time than me could do convert
them :)

Hi,

I converted the manual pages into Pod::Man format. Luckily I found a
man2pod script which did most of the leavy lifting, and then I just did
some cosmetic changes and fixed a few syntax errors where the script got
confused.

I also opened a merge request in Salsa, which might be more convenient
than the attached patch.

Cheers
Timo
