sure. No there is no need to sort sections individually - merely strip all blank lines and all lines start with a hash - here are a few small samples (each is a separate *.dict file): 
# Drink
a cerveja|beer
a laranja|orange
a água|water
beber|to drink
o copo de vinho|glass of wine
o copo|glass or cup
o sumo|juice

so in the end they will all be "filtered" into one big dictionary output file - one per line in "pt dictionary" aphabetical order. They are kinda in markdown format so I could print each out individually without doing any sorting - but also enjoy benefit of having a "big database" of words to do word-tests, a personal dictionary, and cool stuff like that... If I want "sub-section" sorting as you suggest I will just break them out into separate files (I guess) ... Thanks !
