Not sure about what to do with Text Edit, but with Pages, the
following will do the trick:
1) Select the whole document, assuming you want the whole thing double
spaced. (Command-a).
2) Open the document inspector, choose the "Text" radio button, and
the "Text" tab below that.
3) Using VO and the right arrow (or another method of your choosing),
go down to spacing, and simply change the 1 in the edit field under
lines to a 2. (This is down a bit, past character, just below a way to
adjust lines by percentage.
4) Close the document inspector, and you will have a double-spaced
file. If you add to it, etc., it will remain as such. (At least, it
has worked that way for me.)
Sometimes there is so much stuff in the document inspector that it can
seem more than a little daunting, but what I've described here will
most definitely work.
Happy writing.
