Documentation

A wiki should be created containing a bright overview of the structure and usage of the library. For details it should refer to the examples. The documentation should be minimal in terms of updateability in case the library changes. Maybe some documentation could be derived from the code documentation (there is a tool for this if I recall correctly).
