Hey! I'm looking to save my iMessage and Text Message histories in a human-readable form, without spending money on a third-party app.
Has anyone found something that works? All the OS tricks seem to be outdated for El Capitan.
...if not, know of a cheap app that works?

Hi,
It is old (built for iChat) but it works.
Having said that it does take a while to understand what it does and get to isolate individual conversations.
You do have to be Saving chats in the first place.
It works in the files in ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.iChat/Data/Library/Messages/Archive (in here they are in dated/session folders)
iMessages are also "saved" in the chat.db items (all three) in ~/Library/Messages but Logorrhea does not read those files.
