Description File locations?

I cannot for the life of me find where the file locations for the descriptions are for the Avernum games. (new and remakes) The special encounters or descriptions of places is what i'm looking for. They only show up once, so if I miss them or want to write something down, I can't. If someone would be so kind as to point me in the right direction (whether to a location or a specific program to open them-preferably both) then I would appreciate it.

On a Mac, at least, right-click on the app and choose "Show Package Contents." Then go into Contents -> Resources, and you will find the relevant files. You want something prefixed "t" and then the town number and name. There are two files, one suffixed "dlg" and the other suffixed "txt," the former for dialogue and the latter for special encounters. They're just regular text files, so any text editor will open them.

 

You should be able to find the files in a similar location on a PC, but I can't say exactly what the path looks like.
