Development on this is client is still rather premature as the current client is targeted to a particular xbook. However it won't take much effort to make this generic (as described in the following subsections). The code for the command-line client is in XbookPortletEmulator.java file located in the xbooks.client package. It takes 3 arguments (i.e., just like the portlet): xbook manager host name, xbook manager port, and xbook path.
