Bernie, If there are certain non-printable ascii characters in a file, RBEdit assumes it is a "Playback" file, and translates those ascii codes into keystroke names for you. I think there is a pop-up dialog question when it finds them, that asks you if that's what you want to do.
R:Style can help clean up those files, too.
