I'm afraid the syntax is not yet documented. However, the result/error  
codes are documented:

http://refdb.sourceforge.net/manual/ch23s03.html#sect-statusmessages

All messages start with the result code, and the fields are separated  
by colons. I'll have to collect the messages of all available commands  
and document what else they return. Your reverse engineering approach  
is likely to work though, as I don't see any reason to change these  
messages, except by appending additional information.

regards,
Markus
