bb cmd protocol? (was [hobbit] Windows version of a fully functional bb command)

[Charles Jones <jonescr (at) cisco.com>]

Speaking of such, is the protocol for the bb command published anywhere? 
It would be handy if I could write my own function for it in perl and 
other languages that I am writing hobbit scripts in. I'm guessing it's 
not as simple as just making a tcp connection to the port and sending 
the command.
