Not at all, the docs are:
1. https://hashcat.net/wiki/
2. --help output of oclHashcat or cpu hashcat
3. forum search

For instance, the answer to your salt question can easily be answered by looking at this example hashes page:
https://hashcat.net/wiki/doku.php?id=example_hashes


And you (in almost all of the cases!) won't obtain a "new" MD5 hash from cpu hashcat / oclHashcat, but it will just tell you if the hash was cracked, i.e. if the matching password was found, and it will output the important data (*original* hash, salt, password etc). The output format can be adjusted with --outfile-format parameter, the default is hash:password or hashConfusedalt:password (if we speak about salted hashes).

Full information about the available output formats can be found by running cpu hashcat / oclHashcat with the --help switch.

Yeah, saw the examples for each mode, and finally got it to work, btw, one last thing, do you have some nice wordlists? I already searched but most links are down.
