Token Text Table

A text table format used for the Ragnarok Online client. It is used for organizing text data into columns and rows, mostly for id-description relations. It usually has the file extension .txt and can be found inside and outside the GRF.

File Format

The files are plain text files, where rows and columns are separated by the token character #. It can be edited with every text editor like Notepad. Make sure, that the file is not stored in Unicode or UTF-8.

The amount of columns is fixed for each file, that uses this file format. Rows are either limited by available memory or by hard-coded limits, as seen below. Note that all of these limits can be lifted by hexing the client. Whether line breaks are allowed within a cell or not depends on each file as well. Multi-line cells support using # character inside the text, as long it is followed by a space character. Contrary to that, all other # characters must be followed by either a new line or a non-spacing character.

Comments

You may insert comments inside the file by putting // at the beginning of a line. The comment then spans to the end of that line. Trailing comments (not starting at beginning of a line) will not work. Example:

row1#
// Disabled because it does not work
// row2#
row3#
