[Mr Crabman]

Basically, for generated instruments, the properties of the instrument (all its parts, and materials, and the way it's played and so on) are created, and from this the game generates a description detailing this all to the player.

But what I'm looking for is a list of all the different "strings" used to generate this description, and what causes them to be used. Like, somehow the game puts together "The musician plays the fifty-six strings with a wooden bow", from the fact that the object has the token `[SOUND_PRODUCTION:BOWED:PROD:STRING]`, but what I want is a list of all these different strings/relationships, so that for example, I know what `[PITCH_CHOICE:STOPPING_FRET:STRING:NECK]` would generate.

I want to know this so that I can make a hardcoded instrument that has a similarly detailed description as the generated instruments, and so that it actually matches with the tokens I've used. The only ones I don't need to know are the timbres, because from the example raws I've seen I'm pretty sure they're all just single words.

EDIT: I do know about the string dump: https://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/DF2014:String_dump

But it's very unstructured, and while I can mostly tell which parts are related to instruments in general, in many cases I can't tell which token leads to which strings being used.
