Yes.

If you already have saved the file as, eg, 'Mystuff.txt', then execute...

	(FileStream fileNamed: 'Mystuff.txt') edit.

This will give you a text-edit window on that file.  Whenever you type cmd-s or use menu/accept, it will overwrite the contents after a simple confirm. (*)

I *think* that your ^M's are due to the fact that Squeak uses unadorned CR's instead of CR/LF pairs as a default for line endings.  Moreover, I *think* that if you execute...

	(CrLfFileStream fileNamed: 'Mystuff.txt') edit

It will store all your line endings as CR/LF pairs, and things should look right in all the other weird DOS software.  I don't *know* this because I almost never use DOS or Windows, and I can't check it on my Mac.

Hope this helps

(*) If you know the FileList, you can edit right in the fileList, and you can spawn a window on any file by choosing menu/more.../spawn in the lower pane.
