Comment (by hinder):

 There is no such documentation at the moment.  There is a file called
 simfactory/etc/syntax/mdb-syntax.ini which contains the information which
 is output with --help for the MDB entries.  I think this is the place that
 these things should be documented, at least minimally.  The command line
 options are documented in simfactory/etc/options, but this is a little
 confused at the moment and should be tidied up.  The SimFactory user guide
 aims to parse these files and extract the documentation.  This  has been
 done for the command-line options but not for the MDB entries yet.  See
 http://damiana2.aei.mpg.de/~ianhin/simfactoryuserguide/reference.html.
