Hacking ROM Hack Nintendo DS .dsz files: How to Edit?

[Samsonat0r]

im wanting to look at the text for this DS game's code to try and practice text editing, and im pretty sure these are the files that contain every line of text in the game (game in question is Slide Adventure MAGKID), is it possible to view the actual text displayed from these files or edit them in some way? im no master at rom hacking so go easy on me lol

z in the file extension usually indicates it's compressed. Most likely with LZSS or similar (LZMA, LZ77?).

Honestly, judging by the file names, they're more likely to be texture files than text files.
