Like user a spreadsheet to manually generate the keys, or maybe by using the terminal in Linux?

I want to create a paper wallet but want to do it manually. I understand that bitaddress.org automates the process for you.

Do instructions exist which I can follow to do the same thing which bitaddress does to create a paper wallet?
