Epydoc“Epydoc is a tool for generating API documentation for Python modules, based on their docstrings. A lightweight markup language called Epytext can be used to format docstrings, and to add information about specific fields, such as parameters and instance variables.Epydoc also understands docstrings written in ReStructuredText, Javadoc, and plain text.”

Happydoc“HappyDoc is a tool for extracting documentation from Python source code. It differs from other such applications (e.g. Epydoc) by the fact that it uses the parse tree for a module to derive the information used in its output, rather that importing the module directly. This allows the user to generate documentation for modules which need special context to be imported.”

OptparseOptparse
“The optparse module is a powerful, flexible, extensible, easy-to-use command-line parsing library for Python (new in Python 2.3). Using optparse, you can add intelligent, sophisticated handling of command-line options to your scripts with very little overhead.”

Additional text files should be provided:
CHANGELOG - Changes must be recorded (date-stamped) when a non-trivial change in the code is done.
README - e.g. MAN-style documentation.
INSTALL - Installation procedure. Depends on install mechanism.

ConclusionConclusion
Epydoc and Happydoc will both suit our purpose. Aesthetically, the option is obvious. If static parsing of the code is need, Happydoc will be our choice.
Depending on the installation procedure, documentation may be influenced.E.g. distutils
