title: Reading a Dictionary Text file from a .jar
body: <p>I am working on a project and have been given the task of seeing if an input string is in a dictionary from a jar file. In my project explorer the dictionary can be found under the .jar like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Dictionaries.jar
  |--&gt;com.backwards.url
      |--&gt;WordLists.class
          |---&gt;Dictionary.ListOne.txt
          |---&gt;Dictionary.ListTwo.txt
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is there an easy way to read these dictionaries and more importantly see if a word is in them?</p>
  
  <p>The dictionary files themselves are just a list of words, i.e:</p>
  
  <pre><code>apple
  banana
  clementine
  ...
  </code></pre>
