Exporting Journals

It would be great if there was a way to export journal entries...
Entire quests could be made by team members and exported as a complete package in an erf.
As it is, journals have to be hand entered in the final module since there is no way to extract journal bits into erf files

    For now, you can copy the .jrl file from the old module to a new module.

    Open old module in toolset. Copy .jrl file from modules\temp0. Close old module. Open new module. Replace .jrl file in temp0. Change something arbitrary in toolset to allow module save.

    To copy just one quest from old to new, without destroying any quests in the new, use GFFEditor to cooy-and-paste just that quest from the old .jrl to the new.

    At that point, it's just as easy to just copy/paste from a text file

    This would be a big quality of life thing.
