You can't do that on the server. Just think for a second of the security 
implications of a server specifying what application opens which file.

What you can do is deliver the text file with a content-disposition of 
'attachment' and a content-type that can be recognized by the browser 
and then the users can configure their browser to send that content-type 
to the text editor of their choice (if they don't use IE, because IE has 
a 'problematic history' with RFC 2183).
