 Those "cryptic" phrases are probably not meant for the end users, but rather
for those developing and debugging new code. And in most cases there should be
no harm in not knowing what those phrases mean if you're the end user.

 In any event, the message "EnCoef did X forward-backward iterations" relates
to the constrained optimization within EDIIS which is a robust SCF convergence
algorithm {J. Chem. Phys. 116, 8255 (2002)}
