Well, I don't know what is good on OS-X, but if I may still recommend
a terminal editor, then "vi" as was mentioned is available on *every*
decent Unix-like system. It's a bit tricky to use, though, to say the
least. 

But I can give detailed instructions provided vi on OS-X behaves as it
does everywhere else. 

* Open a Terminal

* type: 
    vi ~/.pdrc

* you'll see a lot of "~" signs, don't worry:
  vi is in the normal mode now where every key is a command. A ~
  represents a non-existing line, which you have plenty of as ~/.pdrc
  is still empty.

* now type:
    i

* now vi is in in "i"nsert mode and you can edit the text as usual.

* to save, first press "Escape" to get back to normal mode

* type:
    :w
  to save

* type:
    :q
  to quit.

A nicer, graphical vi with menus and all is Vim from www.vim.org
All my mails are written with Vim.

Ciao
