Maybe someone with textedit can try dragging the "shortcut" from the dock to the desktop and checking for info from there.Robert Gruber wrote:

TextEdit resides in the Applications folder. Deleting it from the dock does not trash it.
Drag TextEdit to the dock position you require it and drop it there, it will make a new alias in the dock.
I wish it were so simple.
I searched my hard drive for textedit after looking in Applications and /utilities, and there's nothing there.
I think my problem is I dragged it from the dock to the desktop, and trashed it from there.
The TextEdit _alias_ resides on the dock when you open the program or drag
the program's icon to the dock. Deleting the alias from the dock does not
trash the program.
If indeed you have lost the TextEdit program from your hard drive, the
likely cause is this: you dragged the program from your HDD to the desktop,
and then deleted the program from the desktop. It is not the deletion of the
dock alias for TextEdit which caused you to lose the program.

I'm sure it's gone from my HD, and I'm sure I didn't move the Ap from the HD to the desktop, IIRC!
