Make a folder for your text files that you want to use for the project.
Select the text you want to use click and paste it into Gedit or gvim. 
Make sure that your text file is always saved with a   .txt extention 
for example  filename.txt
The file should be ready to use.
If they don't have the .txt they don't seem to work.
