I want to edit some application template files that are embedded down two "package" levels - the packages and the files in question are owned by root. And I want to be able to write safe copies of the originals to the same folder.

Is there a simple way to do this in BBEdit?  ie a "sudo" equivalent?

I'm still learning how this stuff works.

Is the pencil icon marked with a red cross? Click it and you should be able to unlock the file for writing.

Yep, I did that, said yes to open for editing and tried to save as a safe copy, 5000 error again. I think it must be a folder permissions problem.
