[Typo3-dev] Complete programming reference?

I have been trying to write various things in typo3 for a while. Some
with success - others, not.

Has anyone, in the course of getting their head around Typo3's code,
drawn up a diagram of how ALL the files relate, what ALL the various
variables are for, and so on? I am getting increasingly fed up with the
bitty, confusing documentation, and would be glad of such a document.


If one doesn't exist, I would like to make it. Any pointers gladly
accepted. 

Here's what would save me a lot of time in the future:

1. File-by-file reference to the back-end. Where a file contains
classes, reference to every class-variable and -function. Where it is
just a linear flow (e.g. testsite/index.php), a flow-diagram of what
happens, what functions are used, variables set/called etc.

2. Diagram of how the files work together. For example,
testsite/index.php might look like:
  [set error..]-->[start microtime]-->[define variables...]-->etc

3. A list of ALL the variables used, where they are used and what they
are used for. For example - I can't find a description of $conf[...]
which isn't embedded in some long tutorial.

Any thoughts?
