What text editor should I use to edit the rules file or the CSV file?

A18: We recommend the freeware editor Wordtabs. If using WordTabs, be sure to pull down “Tools…Options…Click the “general” tab, and UNcheck “RTF is default Format”. This editor is GREAT freeware, although the author has moved on to other things. Remember, the standard windows Notepad won’t edit large files. Note that you typically won’t be editing the CSV file if you are exporting from a database. That would add an extra step you’d have to repeat each time you updated your site. The Notespad editor is great for editing CSV’s if you are making them by hand though. Any good “true” text editor should work.
