Sorry but I cant get the right syntax.
My goal: export plucker.ini to a jxl file
So: plkrdata /load plucker.ini /save c:\toto.jxl

Ah, I'll put up some samples. /load and /save are mutually exclusive. You're either loading or saving. And plucker.ini is assumed as the repository unless you specify /jxl.

So what you want is a slight perversion... it would normally take two steps:

plkrdata channelname /save
plkrdata channelname /load /jxl=c:\toto.jxl

But... you can do it in one if you add a bit to the commandline; just specify the channel and the source file separately on the command-line. For example, to copy the channel "Forbes" from Plucker to Jxl, if Plucker is in d:\palm\plucker...
plkrdata Forbes d:\palm\plucker\plucker.ini /load /jxl=c:\toto.jxl

This uses the Plucker.ini file as a .plkrdata source.

There isn't yet a way to load every channel from the Plucker file, but that request has been noted.

Don't know what it should do exactly but seems not to work (plkradata
/register)

What's not happening or happening? Incidently, it doesn't support registration for loading into JPluck yet. It probably needs a GUI to allow a specific import-destination .jxl chosen as part of registration, because unlike the Python or other pluckers, JPluck doesn't rely on a primary channel file.
