EDICT file - philiphoward123 - 2010-04-22

Hello, can you help me with this please? I would like to make a text file from the EDICT file. (I am on Mac OSX). I can download the zip file from the Monash page, but not open it correctly (not UTF8 and I can't see how to make it so), alternatively I can open the gzip file correctly in my browser but not save it to anywhere useful.

Any way of doing it? Either a .txt file or a Googledocs spreadsheet or something like that is what I'd like to have.

Thanks for your time on my basic problem!

In TextEdit:

File->Open

Select Japanese (EUC) encoding at the bottom where it says "Plain text encoding".

open the file
