    How do I make an executable text file? The only way I can play Feed The Beast is by going into terminal and pasting these command lines in
    Show Spoiler
    cd ~/Desktop/Feed\ the\ Beast/
    export JAVA_HOME=/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.6/Home
    java -jar FTB_Launcher.jar

    I would like to make it so that I can double click a file or what-have-you to run those lines and start up FTB.

    Save it in text edit and change the ending to .command? I think this will work.

    Doesn't work. Textedit requires it to be <filename>.command.rtf. I tried that already.
