Get a decent text editor, e.g. Notepad++
<http://notepad-plus.sourceforge.net/>. Windows Notepad is crap. With
any decent text editor you can open files like persdict.dat just fine,
edit them and save them, copy lines from other files created on a
standard Windows computer etc.

Background: All text files use characters not on the keyboard to
separate lines. It's the task of the text editor to detect these when
loading a file and writing them when saving a file. There are two
characters, CR (Carriage Return) and LF (Line Feed). Windows uses both
to separate lines, UNIX/Linux uses only LF, and Mac uses only CR. Crappy
text editors like Notepad can only read and write one of these formats
(in that case the Windows standard, CR LF). Others, like Notepad++,
SciTE, UltraEdit etc. can handle all three formats just fine.
