Hrrmm...uuuppss, sorry...
Of course:

One set of data is one line long.
Each set of data starts with a "marker", which explains the kind of
data following the marker.
The data "words" are separated by ";".
The EOL is marked by a single "0", exception here is the line starting
with "REF".
The single "&" may be followed by * single character separated by
spaces.
The marker is separated from the data by either a ";" or a ":" or
a space ("&")
The count of digits are fixed per data "word". There are integers with 
leading zeroes as needed.
The sequence of line is different from that below. 
A full sequence would be a little longish for this mail.

The output originates from a AAA/AA NiMH charger ("AV4ms"/www.accu-select.de). The data can be used to analyse the
status of the accus being charged.
