For the .doc filters basically Miklos and I probably have the most
experience with it. There are reasonably good docs for that file format
these days. But in general you have to be prepared to slog through the
code a bit and are hopefully protected from making disastrous change by
our ever expanding suite of regression tests which often act as
after-the-fact documentation as to what some mysterious piece of code
does :-)

Typically there aren't any extra docs outside of what comments are
in-source or occasionally in module top-level README files and some
overviews
