It helps tremendously if you have a programming background as usually the developers behind the original format didn't have any need to make things harder than they need to be. Because of this, you can often guess how the format works, aka. "If I was the original developer, how would I do this?"
I am an engineer, but not a computer scientist or developer. I have been using Linux for 20 years and program a lot at work and at home. I think it should be possible, but find it difficult to interpret the hex code. I do have a general idea of how the format should be organized, as it contains mostly geometric data and associated results.
