Convert ESRI Shapefile to (lat, long) points for each region

Question

I have an ESRI Shapefile with multiple subregions. I need the lat/long points that make up those regions and their unique identifier so I can convert them into a custom format for use in AnyLogic. (AnyLogic can read Shapefiles using OpenMap, but I cannot access the lat/long points using the API.) How would I get them? Is there a command line tool to do this? How would I do it myself, if need be?

Generally you can use OGR2OGR to do something with your shapes. May be you could find this helpful.
