I assume you have already seen it, but if not the gllamm web page has 
lots of papers, FAQs, and worked examples.

http://www.gllamm.org/

As far as referencing software, it is usually enough to say you 
downloaded it from SSC, or whatever site you got it from. That is 
especially important if, say, the -findit- command turns up multiple 
versions of a program; or no versions at all, because you got it from 
somebody's personal site that isn't indexed by findit.
