+[Sphinx][] is a publishing tool that is generally used for [[Python]]
+documentation, although it can be used for other documents as well.
+Sphinx is primarily based on [reStructuredText][rst], and there are
+all sorts of [useful extensions][ext] (e.g. [intersphinx][],
+[pngmath][], ...).  There is a good [tutorial][] in the
+[documentation][].
+
+If you're writing a lot of Python, you should probably consider the
+[numpydoc][] package, which tries to [strike a balance][balance]
+between full markup for Sphinx publishing and raw readability.
