to edit he file, example /etc/fonts/fonts.conf ... put in the following
command
vi /etc/fonts/fonts.conf
this opens fonts.conf in the editor 'vim'
by typing bash /etc/fonts/fonts.conf you are attempting to run
fonts.conf as a bash script, which it is not, and does not have the
execute permissions, so therefore you get a permission denied error.
enjoy :)
