    Yup, or any hex editor that could target memory addresses (some of them were limited to run on a certain file or whatever.) But yeah I used to do similar when I was a kid, I would go into my game files (all DOS games back then of course) and change text strings you could find in there with a hex editor. I’d just change goofy stuff like ‘Copyright’ to ‘Copyleft’, ‘The bandit strikes the princess!’ to ‘The dude slaps a ho’, etc. It was endlessly amusing when I was that age. :)
