Looking at the bb man page I see the following:
By default - if no CRITERIA is provided - it returns one line for all status messages that are found in Hobbit. You can filter the response by selecting a page, a host, a test or a color - wildcards are not supported, so you can
pick only one page, host, test or color.
But it seems I can do a query for multiple tests/color combinations
bin/bb 127.0.0.1 "hobbitdxboard color=red,yellow,purple test=cpu|disk|
memory"
color needs a coma to be used as a separator, and test needs a pipe. it seems to work, I just wanted to confirm this behavior was suppose to be working in this manner. I don't want to write scripts that have a foundation on a bug.

Thanks,
