A pk3 file is just a zip file with the extension changed.  All you do is take your development directory tree and stuff it in a zip file and rename the zip with a .pk3 instead of .zip.  Here is a tutorial on the layout.  I'm sure you will find the rest of the tutorial handy as well.  You can also open up any of the pk3 files with a zip utility to see more examples.
