GeoScape String Files

These files contain the strings used by the geoscape game engine. Each string is terminated by a null character (x00). Line breaks are defined by x0A. Every now and then x02 pops up, not sure why, probably something to do with the large font.
There are 972 entries in all, not all of which are used by the release version of the game.
