I wanted to do this initially as well but Light Notepad is so much more accessible with Talks than Quick Office I am now using this as my preferred text file reader. The annoying thing is that I cannot use this to access text file attachments from email. As I understand it saving text files from email attachments simply makes them available in the Notes application.
I sent a donation to the programmer of Light Notepad so I may try to send an email to see if he could add the capacity to make Light Notepad work in this way. It can clearly be done as the file editor B Edit I installed opened files from both File Manager and email attachments but has pretty terrible accessibility with Talks.

I want text files to open in QuickWord when selected in the phone's File Manager.
