Lua files are simple text files, so you can open them in any plain text editor like Notepad and use that to modify the content of the file. In a windows environment, you can just right click the file in your explorer and select "Open With" then select "Notepad" from the list.

As an alternative, you can download Lua editors like "woW UI Designer" which is available as a free download here on WoWI: http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/cat49.html

Second, I'm a noob >.< I have always been so-so about the buff/debuff bars on the right and left sides of my screen (my only discomfort with the whole mod I assure you) and have learned to get used to it over the months I've had this installed. And in searching the tech support forums I see this discussion and would really love to minimize these bars just so I have more screen space. It appears you have given a solution above as to how to fix this but I don't quite understand what the edit Interface > AddOns > nUI > Layouts > Default > UnitPanels > {panel mode} > nUI_UnitSkin_{panel mode}_{unit id}.lua means...

Also, I actually do prefer the bars over the individual pictures now that I'm used to the bars (see its not even an entire dislike lol) so the aura buttons are not necessary.

Any explaination would be appreciated! Thank you so much!
