AGSC uses MusyX data for the audio engine. Each sound has it's own "SoundMacro" and properties. The pool chunk is where the soundmacros are located. SoundMacros are small scripts that control how sounds are played in game, like pitch or vibrato or fade outs. Here's a description of the pool chunk:

Offset	Size	Description
0x0	4	Header size Looks like it's always 10
0x10	4	Macro size
0x14	2	Macro ID
0x18	Macro data, needs more research

STRG Commands are similar to CSS syntax. A ; terminates the command. & begins the command, so for example, &just=center;

Command	Value	Description
just	center	Justifies text
image	SI,0.70,0.68,TXTR ID	Displays an image. SI = Single Image? S,T and finally TXTR ID. Animation = SA, Animation Speed, S,T, TXTR ID, TXTR ID
main-color	Hex Color Code	Changes color of text.
