Infocom string ripper?


30 Mar 1995 07:32:27 GMT

Is there a program available that will take an Infocom-format story
file, search it for strings (I know they're stored in some strange
internal format), and display them? I'm not looking for vocabulary
listers, but rather something that'll extract object descriptions,
clever message bits, and the like from any random file (for instance,
"Suspended", so I don't have to play seven zillion games to see what
every room looks like to every robot). Anybody got something useable?
