[Xymon] config report from command line?

I have explored xymond_alert and unless you know something I don't it lacks the information that I am looking for.

For example, if I do:
xymond_alert --test webserver1 conn --color=red --duration=620 --cfid|grep -v Failed

The only semi-useful line is:
00003412 2013-06-14 08:19:33 *** Match with 'PAGE=%.*/ORD EXPAGE=%.*/ORD_DEV EXHOST=app1,app2,db1,db2  EXSERVICE=virtuals COLOR=red,yellow' ***

It does not include the actual actions to be performed that are contained within that match.  For this particular page match, I have 4 separate scripts that can be run:

-          If SERVICE=cpu & COLOR=red

-          If COLOR=red & EXSERVICE=cpu,virtuals,procs <<-- This one should be matched/run

-          If SERVICE=procs & COLOR=red

-          Match all <<- This one should be matched/run

None of the details of what is actually done are displayed.  I know that Xymon can do all of this because, well, it does.  But how can I parse it out via command line?
Thanks,
John

but I want to include who gets alerted (or what scripts).  But, I have not found an easy way to do this from the command line.  Has anyone else tried this or have ideas?

What about using the xymond_alert tool.  You can give it a "--dump-config" switch to - well - dump the config.  Also, you can use the "--test" switch to display all scripts tied to a given host/test combination.
