There is no good documentation at all. All you can find is the source code.
You can see documentation about creating operations and readers to
understand some general concepts. Then look at the source code (for
example IDLitToolbase) to see how menus are created. Then you can create
your own tool (inheriting from IDLitTool, instead of IDLitToolbase) and
register your readers, writters, operations, etc.
Bye.
