This utility turns on combat reports in fortress mode. It is bartavelle's Dwarf Companion, stripped of all its functionality except turning on the combat reports, which it does as soon as it is run.

Why?
I wanted combat reports on my Linux setup and was having trouble building an exe and running it in wine. The trouble comes from the gui package, so i removed all that, and made it turn on the combat reports when it is run. It says "done!" in the end. This tool brings bartavelle's work on the combat reports option to all the people that do not want to set up a build environment.

How?
It never failed me, i just start DF, load, pause, run this program and when it is done i unpause and that is all.

More!
It goes great with the idea someone posted of running tail -f on gamelog.txt. Now i am working on some keyword highlighting for that, which i should post later. Anyone want to suggest a good keyword list of things we should mind in the endless sparring reports, go ahead and post it. A list of the names of creatures that can attack the dwarves should be a good start.

Obviously if bartavelle asks me to remove this then it will go.

Here it is:

All thanks to bartavelle.

This is cool to me, but I guess you should put the file on the DF file repository thingie.

That would be the dwarf fortress file depot.  

Please post it there - I'm interested in checking this out (and I hate rapidshare).

It is now posted on dwarf fortress file depot.

I uploaded the wrong version of the file by mistake. The new, fixed one is up now.
