They are binary data files, and are not meant to be edited by hand.
First of all, you have to mount the filesystem on which you want quotas to be
enabled with the usrquota argument. Edit /etc/fstab and set it there.

Set the quotas there - run edquota for a typical user, and set his quotas in
that file. Then run edquota -p <that user's name> <all other user's names>
to set quotas for every user using the prototype quotas for the first user.
You can see the usage statistics by the command repquota.
