I did google! Otherwise I wouldn't ask the question here and instead post some tutorial here about it *giggles*
And I didn't find any answer for the issue. The only thing that I fould is this page:

This explains the general architecture of the SLM file. But it doesn't show exactly how every data is stored (which bytes means which data).
Maybe these data are stored using some known tree or table algoritm (for example xml and json are famous tree encodings for data structures - though they are text-readable - this one is clearly binary for maximial data compression) - I don't know. The MeshesSL and Mesh Helper creation team somehow found it out.

I would make all the programming myself - just need the basic info how to read the slm file. Any site, documentation, tutorial, just anything! :D Evem Mesh Helper or MeshesSL sourcecode could help in some way - does not have to be current one - even old version. I know how to binarily read files I just need to know the encoding.
