I'm looking for some python scripts to recover plain text from ram dumps.

Ideally it should work with volatility, and I need the plain text to be from a couple of words to 3-5 lines of text.

does anyone know of such a script?

Thanks,

Not to be one to ever turn down the opportunity to chat about Python, but can you not just run strings across it?

If you're on Windows there's a version in the Sysinternals suite

You could then pipe it to grep if you need to match patterns.
