What form should I be writing external documentation in?  The guile
manual on the website is in fairly straightforward html; should I be
writing in that?

Indeed.  ;-)

But Guile’s manual, as for the rest of GNU, is written in Texinfo: see
doc/ref/guile.texi and siblings.  The HTML and PDF files on the web site
are generated from Texinfo.

You should use Texinfo for the PEG manual, e.g., write a section for PEG
that would become part of Guile’s manual (assuming it’s not too large).
Texinfo’s syntax is relatively simple.  Try “info texinfo” for the
manual.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
