I want to try duplicating raws to get strange things to happen

Is there any particular thing you have to do to get them duplicated? do I just copy the file, or do I put the same text in one file twice? this is probably a stupid topic, I just want to make sure I'm doing it correctly. :P

same text in one file twice

More specifically, same object, E.G an entire creature. For best results, copy the toad creature under creature_amphibian and paste it in the same spot without overwriting the original.

Dwarf Fortress: The only game where having two of the same creature is justification for alligator blacksmiths.

Centration. Similar to Spacestation 13, but in 3D and first-person. Sounds damn awesome.

In mine dwarves became giant moles, humans giant rats, goblins giant bats, and elves wolves.

This is Dwarf Fortress. Where torture, enslavement, and murder are not only tolerable hobbies, but considered dwarfdatory.
