With the introduction of SQLite and Core Data, Pedias data-files are not easily editable anymore. To be precise, thery are not editable tout-court.
With the old XML files there was the possibility, in case of necessity, to modify data using the simple "find and replace" function of any text editor. That was very, very, useful. Sadly, with SQlite files that possibility has vanished.
I do not see the advantage to have data-files which are not editable externally with the super-fast "find and replace" function.
Please, go back to XML files or enhance the editing capabilities of your otherwise nice Pedias.
Thank you!

Enhance data-file editing
Hi Stefano,
The files are still editable via the Terminal program. The syntax is different as it SQL. But this post here will let you know how to do it. This post has information for those with Tiger and the older version of sqlite3 that does not support replace that need to install the developer tools and use the path /usr/bin/sqlite3.
