All we need are two programs -- one that translates the SaveGameFile into ASCII, and another that translates ASCII into a SaveGameFile. Both of these should be easy for Aaron to write. (Or Aaron could just explain the format of the SaveGameFile.) Then modders could write nice user interfaces for changing the ASCII, which would be the hard part. That's basically the way things were done for C&C Red Alert and for X-Wing.
