This code was pretty much all generated by chatbotgpt, I signed up to check it out and thought it would be funny if it could create something that would actually work.
Turns out, it can lol
But I can barely code, so I'm struggling a little bit.

Anyways, I'm having a hard time with the logic for this because I don't think I'm doing it right:

The idea is to have the addon read the contents of a file and then display the contents inside of a editable control, so the user can change code.
But I don't really understand how do that per se.

Right now I can display the contents of a file in a textbox, but users cant edit those.
But you can edit an edit control, but I don't know how to "feed" the contents of the file into that or use the contents of the file as the default label.

Is it possible to open/create a window that operates like a traditional Notepad?

(^^ I stole some assets from youtube-dl module because it was the easiest one at the time. If I can get this working correctly, I will replace them with unique assets)

This is what the addon looks like when it opens a test file:
