Calibre Search Syntax for Multiple Columns

Hello - I'm trying to conduct a Calibre search on the command line but can't seem to find the proper syntax - can someone provide me the syntax - i.e. command\field\parameter\value -- as an example the syntax for a search of books in a certain readling list (custom column) with a rating of 5 (stars) - Thank you Michael

Also, is there a reference guide for all Calibre command syntax

Command Line Interface

See calibredb search - it returns a list of book numbers.
