How does one edit the 00console.rpy file?
You could use a decent text editor such as

or something a bit more powerful such as

. Both are free, though VSC is easier because Notepad++ needs a little extra work in setting it up because it doesn't detect .rpy as a "python" file, so it won't have any styling at all to help you with the code syntax. Personally I prefer Notepad++ for several reasons, one of which is the spell check plug-in (along with all the other available plug-ins).
How to set up Notepad++ to read and edit .rpy files with the correct styling for "python" files:
1) Go to Settings -> Style Configurator, then find "Python" in the Language menu, and below it you will see a text box for "User ext.". Enter "rpy" (without quotation) into this box and Notepad++ will detect .rpy files as python scripts.
2) Go to Settings -> Preferences -> Language, on the far right are the Tab Settings, at the bottom is "Tab Size", make sure it is set to "4" then check the "Replace by space" Checkbox, and Notepad++ will use spaces instead of tab for indentation.
