Well, no. Hunspell files are useful in themselves too. Hunspell can be used both as a stand-alone command-line tool or as a library. OpenOffice embeds Hunspell and can thus use your .dic and .aff files for spell checking, but those same files can be used in entirely different programs (e.g., Thunderbird) to the same purpose.

Is anybody
here who knows something about a description?

You fill find rather comprehensive information about Hunspell (including file format) in PDF files at
http://sourceforge.net/projects/hunspell/files/Hunspell/Documentation/

The code used by OpenOffice to interface with Hunspell is here:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/openoffice/trunk/main/lingucomponent/source/spellcheck/spell/

and the OpenOffice customizations to hunspell are here:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/openoffice/trunk/ext_libraries/hunspell/
