Determine if lot has run through PIMX by CLI

I started playing SC4 again after many many years. I want to give CAM a try. I have many growables in my old plugins folder, and I would like to loop through them to determine whether they're PIMXed and therefore CAMpatible. Is it possible to determine the PIMX state via the command line, so it's scriptable?

The hint is in the filling rate. If there's one, it could be processed by the PIM-X since building produced by Maxis tools don't have that property. Another way to determine such lot is a CAMified lot is by simply calculating it with the CAM standards. Here is what I mean with CAM standards.

    Thanks, I know about the filling degree. What I would like to ahieve is to check hundreds of lot files automatically with a little script so I don't have to check them manually one by one. A command line option to export all properties and heir values to txt/csv/whatsover would succeed, so I could check it for the existance of the filling degree property. I haven't been able to find any info about command line tools/options to decode and export lot files.
