Yes, I did that several months ago. It's not a question about
practicalities. I'm still curious as to why a huge powerful, complex
esoteric development tool would be the default application for something as
ubiquitous, slight and harmless as TEXT. Maybe PB existed first, before
anything else? (Did they use Project Builder to build TextEdit, maybe?) It
seems so anomalous and peculiar. I'm just curious. If anyone knows, please
tell us.
