dumping in ascii format

Our old database had a way to dump the data in ascii format. That was very useful in migrating to oracle. I specified that I only wanted data dumped, not objects, and the system created a bunch of statements:
  insert into foo(bar, baz, yaz) values('abc', 'def', 17);

Is there a way to do this for oracle, or do I have to write it myself? The documentation seems to only show how to make a binary dump.

I have oracle8 by the way.

Thanks,

Sarah Officer
