CREDITS
Although I have created these documents myself, I have to say that most of the credit must go to TeamBG: 

	http://www.teambg.net/teambg_com/cgi-bin/YaBB.cgi

or simply: 

	http://www.teambg.com

Without the programs they have written, it would not have been possible for me to author these documents.  

TECHNICAL INFORMATION
I used the following TeamBG utilities to make these files: 

1) WinBiff v1.2
I used this tool to open the "Items.BIF" file (located in the "data" folder of the Baldur's Gate directory) and extract every .ITM file from it into a folder.  

2) Infinity Engine File Info Extractor v0.2.1
After extracting "Items.BIF" into a folder I created, I used this utility to look at the *.ITM files and output all the texts (names and descriptions) for each item into a .TXT file.  

WinBiff v1.2 and IEFIE v0.2.1 are available for download on TeamBG's website, along with many other utilities.
