.dat format?
Hi all! I have a Macbook running OSX 10.4.11

Can I somehow open a .dat file on this? And if so, how? :)

1. Textedit will open it, but TextWrangler is free and a very useful editor.
If you just want a quick look, Textedit is in the Applications folder. Done.

But if you want to edit just about anything including html and css, etc -- without adding unwanted characters or formatting, -- Check out Text Wrangler, by the BBEdit folks at barebones software.

Here's a link:

enjoy!
