Implement msim_pack(), msim_sendh(), msim_send(). msim_pack() converts a hash table to a protocol message string. msim_sendh() sends a protocol message using msim_send_raw, after converting the hash table to a string using msim_pack(). msim_send() accepts variable arguments and converts them to a hash table, then sends using msim_sendh(). These are part of the TODO item "Generic protocol message sending function, that handles packing of messages", but functions haven't been updated to use msim_send() instead of msim_send_raw() yet.

This program calls purple API functions using DBus and prints the return value.
If you are not interested in the return value, use purple-send-async.

Usage:

   $0 method-name type1:parameter1 type2:parameter2 ...

This shell script just invokes dbus-send, see man dbus-send for how 
to specify the parameters.  

Examples:

   $0 PurpleAccountsFindConnected string: string:prpl-jabber
   $0 PurpleAccountsGetAll
   $0 PurpleCoreQuit

Use dbus-viewer to get the list of supported functions and their parameters.
