Your Old Pal Lewie

Those familiar with , is there a way to export a history log of your fortress and its inhabitants as txt files?

@Lewie_Kong Open it in legends mode and press "p". It makes three files in Dwarf Fortress' root directory.

@Lewie_Kong You can also use DFHack and the "exportlegends" command which'll give you more XML than you know what to do with!

@Lewie_Kong From legends mode you're able to export the world history as an XML file, but that's about the best you can do.

If you use an external viewer like Legends Viewer you can read the XML files in a nicer format, but strictly for a txt file there's not a lot you can do.
