Hi DeQuincy,

One of our engineers suggests using command line utilities instead of an 
editor to do this. For example:

|cat header.txt coverage.txt>  coverage.bed

Then load coverage.bed in the Genome Browser.

I hope this helps. Please contact us again at [email protected] if you 
have any further questions.
