You should be able to save as a plain text file from Word and avoid the additional code. Not sure if this is still the case with OS X as I used to do this in OS 9 with Office 98.

Wordpad on PC usually works fine for me but I have used Word in the past too.

You just need to make sure the file is still .lib and doesn't get changed to .txt or .doc especially as many Mac users aren't used to seeing file extensions.
