Jeff, Yes, there is some documentation. Most of the API is documented directly in the code via comments with a large effort on-going to migrate those comments into their respective header files (so the public API docs are all in one place). There are also a variety of example codes for various types of new applications such as new converters, new primitives, new geometry generators, etc. There is also the handful of examples on the website:
http://brlcad.org/wiki/Developing_applications http://brlcad.org/wiki/Developer_Documents Given what you're wanting to do is pretty low-level, the majority of relevant documentation is going to be in the source files themselves (in src/librt/primitives/nmg) and a few converter tools (in src/conv).
