Is there an online/wiki version of SMAC(X) Datalinks?
Would be great to have Alpha Cenauri's datalinks available online as a sort of wiki. The idea doesn't sound too original so I thought there should already be one but the closest thing I managed to find was Alpha Centauri Wiki wich is far from complete.
So are there any non-ingame versions of datalinks?

What kind of format are the datalinks stored as? A lot of the old Firaxis games kept data in textfiles, so there might be a chance to parse the data out of the game files and convert it to wiki notated text.
Heck, I wouldn't mind having all of that data in an Android app, just to look up the quotes.
Yes, simple text files -
concepts.txtandconceptx.txt, and their format is quite simple but not totally trivial to convert to something more easy to use. I don't mind doing this just wanted to check if someone have already worked this out.Could be worth searching through the SMAC/X sections of Civfanatics' forums for something like hat.
