Finished inserting the Esgares event text.
The English ended up being way larger than the space available so I had to take the time to create a space saving routine. It reserves a set of "Slots". If I add a special tag to the text, it will write the next word into one of those slots. Then, if I add a different special tag to the text, it will insert the stored word back into the text stream.
The simple version is that it lets me "write" common long words into the text using only a couple letters worth of space. It made the Esgares script small enough to fit pretty easily and should help with space a lot in the future.
