view.
To edit a source file that is currently open in the Disassembly source-mode view, the pop-up menu option Open Source
File for Editing must be selected. This will open an editor window containing the file for editing.
Alternatively you may open the file for editing manually via the Workspace Window or by the main menu [File ->
Open].

Upon selecting this menu option a file-browse dialog will be displayed prompting for the source file to be opened. Any
text-based file may be selected and not just source files.
