[R] Writing functions

I want to rewrite my function(s) so that they get the elegance of
lm, coxph, etc, with formulas. Where can I find a document that
describes, in one place, how to do it? I am now reading the code
of 'coxph' and 'lm', which gives me lots of functions to look up,
like match.call, match.arg, terms, eval, and so on, but I don't get 
the overview I need from that.

What I need to know is how formulas are 'decoded', and everything 
related to that.

Thanks for any hints.
