see, that's the problem. i'm opening the file in an editor. i've used kedit, kwrite, kate, and kword. i get into it, if i try to make a change, it doesn't work. i get told i don't have write permission or i'll get told it couldn't save or whatever. so what am i doing wrong? is there something i'm missing about trying to edit these files? every time i try it's like banging my head against the wall....nothing happens except i get more confused. any suggestions?
