Totally unrelated to game play, totally related to the game

I have always loved the quotes and factoids that appear mid-screen during points where the computer needs to do some background housekeeping or disk work.

Unfortunately they sometimes flash by so fast that I dont get the chance to read them in their entirety... Would LOVE to be able to bring them up whenever I felt like it, to read at my leisure.

Just an fyi - you can view the full txt file with all the hints. It's located in the OOTP Folder, Default Data, "misc" folder. Only 1 file in there, a txt file named hints. Just open that and you can see them all.

I know it doesn't do what you're asking, but it does give you an option to read them at your leisure.

Oh, and you can add to it or remove some if so desired.
