    Hey guys,

    I was working on a tool that you can use like this,
    You select your gba rom ofcourse pokemon like Leaf Green,

    And you select analyze it will read the whole file piece by piece,
    And would look for text strings and show them + there offset,

    I got the basic working i made it really quickly but dont really feel like finishing it,
    You can ofcourse set a offset from where it should start i set it to pokemon names just for fun.
    just set to 0 to start from beginning.

    It currently only shows the strings it found in the file.
    You an ofcourse set the Characters what it should look for and what not.

    If your going to finish this or use it at least give a bit of credits ;),
    Using the readhex function of Darthatron, So some credits to him,
    As for the rest its more test code then actually coding.
    So it got strange varible names and what not.

    Its like a miracle that it works just piece by piece random code what all together does something.

    Well hope its useful to somebody..

    Yeah it will search the whole rom for posible text,
    Like pokemon name's attack's etc.
    I wanted to add like offset of where it was found its quite easy to add but well i while i wrote the code + topic i hadnt slept for around 24 hours.

    And thought maybe somebody else has a interst in it if so they can use the code how ever they like.
