FCEUX question

[Gil]

I'm runing 2.1.0 in case this matters, it shouldn't tho.
So I'm trying to hack a rom, and I come across this in my emulator, I figure it can help alot of it does like I think, but.. well.. Anyhow, I should get to the point.

My question is this: what the hell is the "text hooker" (under tools menu), and what does it do EXACTLY?
See, I thought with a name like text hooker, it would hook onto whatever text I selected, and either tell me the hex address of it, lemme change the goddamn text, or SOMETHING, but I can't figure out how to use the stupid thing, and I want to change the text in a ROM I'm working on hacking.
can anybody please help?

thing I'm trying to edit: FF opening screen text

Have you tried reading the documentation that comes with FCEUX? Basically, all the text hooker allows you to do is select text on the screen and specify what that text means in a different text box, so as to provide a rough translation. It does not modify the ROM in any manner whatsoever.
