The protocol is pretty simple, Larry describes it here (this thread a while ago) http://www.lispniks.com/pipermail/gardeners/2005-December/000320.html
Basically it is a lisp list, prefixed with a 6digit hex number in plain text, ie 0000E0(...) The (...) bit is (I think) a 2 element list, the CAR is usually :emacs-rex for Slime->swank coms, the CDR is another list containing the sexp that Swank will execute. Look at slime.el for details, but about the only thing "protocol" in the sexp being sent is that certain characters are converted, for example the newline character gets converted into 2 characters "\n" - I don't know why this is done, but presumably Swank prefers it that way.
