"Learning With Texts" software + Japanese?

Since the edit file is simply a specially formatted text file, it shouldn't be too difficult to change the separator. Notepad++ struggles with the size of the file, so I couldn't really get a look at how verbs are handled.

I downloaded that file, unfortunately all the entries look like this:
£²£¹Æü [¤Ë¤¸¤å¤¦¤­¤å¤¦¤Ë¤Á] /(n) (1) twenty-ninth day of the month/(2) twenty-nine days/

This is the Edict2 format. I don't know what encoding that is, and what to do with it.

[edit] Never mind, followed the link to the Monash site and found a utf8 version. Turns out this first encoding isn't supported by Microsoft (and I'm running Windows). I think I might be able to convert this with just the replace function in SublimeText. Won't even need to code anything.
