hauksdottir.... I'm a dual mac and pc user and I can agree with the doc thing and not having word (even though I do have it..I hate to fire it up because I hate Microsoft programs in general on a mac). Do you have BBEdit.? Even the free version will crack open most files no matter what they are named or what file types they are. I sometimes even open corrupted page layout files to get back lost text if I absolutely have to. You can set the mac to use that as the automatic open program for text files and then just double click I believe. I also use it to do source coding in html as well...a lot better than Simple Text since it has no limits on how big the file can be. Hope that helps !
