I found out why it doesn't work in the manual:

Text Files
It is not strictly necessary to convert text files to HTML. Sigil can directly open .txt files.
Text files must have a blank line between paragraphs so that Sigil can split them into separate paragraphs.
Text files are not an ideal source, but they can still be better than some formats as they will have fewer unnecessary HTML tags. They may be worth using if you have lots of issues with other formats. Sometimes it is faster to add styles to a clean document than to try to clean up a converted file.

It sounded like you were recommending that other program instead of sigil but maybe you mean use it to get a file ready for sigil.
