But you can always open the bitbake file in a text editor. You maybe "only" cannot open it by double click. Or am I wrong?

[nickersk]

right ... i use mcedit, joe, nano on console to be 100% sure what am i a doing ;-)

There are many instructions in the net to set default application for file types like this:

And I use geany in most cases. Nice editor expecially for python as you can change size of tabs.
