No. Sorry Reddymails, I'm not really looking for just a large file with "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog." typed over like a million times. I need the file to have words in the english language.

So if anyone knows the URL of the words file in UNIX that I can click to download, please send it to me. I will greatly appreciate it. Thanks!
So, as you can see, it's just a file with dictionary words. It's like looking in a dictionary with all the definitions taken out. So you're left with just a list of words. The "words" file in UNIX, is this list. That's what I need.
