Just to add, I tried using Pseudo - drag and drop file, open in TextEdit and edit the file. The trouble is, now that it's edited, it won't let me save it over the top of the original and so now it's just a text file!! I've been reading up about Terminal and using the vim editor in Terminal but when I follow what I think is the command, I don't see any text in the file. It would probably be easier to work in TextEdit for the moment but I can't find a way to save the file back to the Unix Executable the original file says it is. Please help.
