Key features:
* import and export FLDev format text infocards with a fair bit of error detection for mistakes in the imported cards.
* scans dlls and find encoding errors (missing BOMs etc) and tries to fix them.
* fairly good browsing and searching of all infocards.
* unicode support - infocard import files are utf-8 format (without bom).

Source code included! This is useful if you want C# code to read/write infocards - specifically resource section string tables. Note that infocard formatting code is not complete, just a quick hack. Feel free to improve the code or use it in your own programs. If you do use it, it would be nice to mention me somewhere and even better tell me.

Btw, thanks FF. Your code in FLDev showed me how to write the string tables. Without this I wouldn't have been able to get this to work. Gah. It took me ages -- eventually I ported and slowly rewrote your stuff until I understood it.

PS: TSP staff guys, I tried to upload this to the downloads section but it borked with 'forced download mime type not permitted'. This make any sense to you?

Discovery Infocard Dump @ 2016-03-20
It is backuped on my google drive, just in case. See the link to my thread in signature.
Is there a way to use this tool to view and edit faction ID text?
Or rather - how to do that at all in the first place.

I'd like to know this too please. Or rather... how does one edit and add infocards?
Do not use this tool.

Use this tool.

(Again tho, this is just my opinion /shrug )
