it's a sort of binary csv file.
You can use this quickbms script for dumping all the strings and possibly reimporting them (size limit), it's not like a csv but it's better than nothing if nobody else replies:

Code: Select all

callfunction DUMP 1
get ELEMENTS long
for x = 0 < ELEMENTS
    callfunction DUMP 1
next x

startfunction DUMP
    get STRINGS long
    for i = 0 < STRINGS
        get SIZE byte
        slog "" -1 SIZE
    next i
endfunction
