Is it possible to get notification of all trait changes?

The beginning of turn messages notify you of new ancillaries, changes in loyalty, changes in command skill, stealth skill, assassination skill, etc.

However if I want to keep track of things like which governor picked up Farming Knowledge or which general is becoming an alcoholic from sitting in a town with a tavern, every turn I find myself having to jump through all my character sheets to see what's happened.

Is there any way to change is so that you're notified of ALL trait changes every turn? I know nothing about scripting or modifying the game files so I have no idea if this is possible. It'd be very useful, though.

I probably missed a procedure or two but.
you go to the data files and find export_descr_character_traits and put in Gainmessage Trait_gain_desc then export_descr_VnVs_enums and add Trait_gain_desc and then something else which i think you need to convert the string files to put in (ill come back later and edit if i find out)

Edit, actually those are data files, Go to the text files and convert the strings there and go to export_VnVs and put Trait_gain_Desc and i think thats it ( i may be wrong)
