I've tried it and no it will not!

Now if you run TextWrangler as root it will work. The easiest way to
do that is to do this command:

From terminal...
sudo open -a TextWrangler <path/filename>

That will run text wrangler as root and let you edit the file and save
it properly without messing up permissions.

Hi Bill,

Sorry but that's not the case: you can use the direct download version of
TextWrangler to modify any local file that you (i.e. your login account)
can open, including the one mentioned in this thread. :)

[In the event you need to edit a file which you can't open, you will then
have to modify its permissions first.]

Regards,

Patrick Woolsey
