Okay, so I've downloaded a self-executing text file to Mac -- now what?  
With DOS this is easy: one just renames self-executing files so that they
have an .EXE or .COM extension.  But how do you do the equivalent with a
Mac?  For that matter how do you get into the operating system to edit the 
file?

Thanks, 
Steve Barger
