Just wanted to share my development tool add-in named Message.
Download
I developed it a couple of months ago when I started working on some other addins (one of which very heavily relies on messages built in the OS - 3,000 lines of code so far excluding sprites and data arrays and still not finished ;( ...). While working on the other add-ins I have discovered better ways of printing messages transparently over the background images and similar things, but have not implemented it here. The source code will be included in the archive once approved by the admins. It currently compiles without issues under Windows on my side - in case someone else wants to play with it or extend it should a new system update come - as I limited the add-in to the currently known range of system messages so that it loops within that range.
This addin was inspired by flyingfisch' add-in PrintXY_2 Reference but made from scratch to show more than one message on each screen and therefore saving time and repetitive key presses when going through the system messages. It also prints the system mesages in the way which makes it easier to see if there any blanks in the message for basically its total length purposes etc.
Chinese had to be handled a bit differently.
Usage:
[Exit] will take you to the start screen with the other instructions: [any key] next page, [Up] previous page, [Right]/[Left] skip +/- 10 pages
