You can't call TextEdit from the command line like that, you have to launch it in the GUI. 

This will do the trick: open -a /Applications/TextEdit.app .bash_profile

That doesn't really matter, though, as you do not want to use TextEdit, because it saves files as RTF!

This is true only if "Rich text" mode is selected as the default in TextEdit preferences.
Select "Plain text" and it will read and write plain text.


Certainly I agree, though, that an emacs command line is more appropriate here!
