According to a friend of mine that has used InDesign for some personal 
projects, InDesign can export and import XML. That could mean that you 
only have to create a template and then insert the documentation by 
automatic search and replace. (I use the same technique to build simple 
websites.)
Apparently InDesign even has scripting facilities, she has not used them 
herself. She is not a programmer, but a child of the WYSIWYG point and 
click generation. All in all it sounds to me as something that matches 
your interests and abilities. Perhaps she can even help you a bit. She 
has met people that use complex programs to do simple tasks before (i.e. 
we have worked together for some time).
