Introduction
This is not a mod, and not a real utility. It is an extension to OBSE and adds useful commands that can be called from scripts

If you're not interested in scripting, just head to the download section if you need this.
If you're a modder, you may be interested in how to use string variables in scripts.
This is the main goal of this OBSE plugin. Please help me by downloading and trying this mod. But first read below.

1. What is this?
TSFC is a plugin for OBSE which allows using strings in TES Scripts.

2. How does this work?
It is a DLL file, written in C++. If OBSE is compiled with its plugin manager, it checks dll files at <oblivion>/Data/obse/plugins, and if they're compatible, loads them and they can do whatever OBSE can do. You need an OBSE version of at least 0012.<br><br>3. Where is the documentation?<br><a href="http://cs.elderscrolls.com/constwiki/index.php/TSFC">Here</a><br>That site is the most frequently updated, so check back there for changes once in a while.<br><br>4. How does TSFC store the strings?<br>When requested from a script, TSFC creates a string in the memory and returns an number. The script may save this number to one of its variables. TSFC functions accept this number as a parameter, look up the associated string in the memory and perform the requested operation.<br><br>The strings are not saved, but this is a planned feature and doesn't seem hard to implement.<br><br>5. Functions included<br>See the documentation.<br><br>6. How can I see this in action?<br><a href="http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=11710">Trophy Soul Gems</a> is a simple script using TSFC. It lets you make soul gems with the name <em>Soul of *Name*</em>.<br><br>Ideas and suggestions are always welcome.<br>Forum Thread:<br><a href="http://www.bethsoft.com/bgsforums/index.php?showtopic=715123">Here</a></oblivion>
