I have researched this question in detail (last summer--I doubt anything
has changed since). You basically don't have that much choice, so you'll
have to relax any requirements that you have and just go along with what
is out there.
First, you have the choice of using a language-independent documentation
system like NuWeb (http://nuweb.sourceforge.net/), or even better (with
macro support), FunnelWeb (http://www.ross.net/funnelweb/).
The analog of javadoc is f90doc
(http://theory.lcs.mit.edu/~edemaine/f90doc/).
I use FWEB (http://w3.pppl.gov/~krommes/fweb.html), which is much more
compehensive then what you need, but also much harder to learn and use
well.
So I say look at f90doc first!
Best,
Aleksandar
