There are loads of ways of doing this, e.g., via the command line 
using perl or awk. In the desktop just use the regular expression 
syntax in your preferred editor.

In Zap, for instance, you can add a colon to every word (consisting of 
letters, numbers, underscore and bar characters) on its own at the 
start of a line with nothing else on that line using the following:

Search:\<\{\[a-zA-Z0-9_|]\[a-zA-Z0-9_|]\*\}\n
Replace:&1:\n
