So I hit Continue and now when I double click on another text document it opens in TextWrangler.
So it tells you here, this change will apply to all documents with extension. Now all files that are that same type are going to now open with TextWrangler. In addition I can hit this Change All button that appears here. I can set that to be TextEdit, TextWrangler, BBEdit, anything I want. So I can do File Get Info, or Command I, with that file selected. I can change that back by Control clicking again, select Always Open With and select TextEdit, the default here, so that one now opens in TextEdit. It's only this one file that has a flag set now to open in TextWrangler instead of TextEdit. However another file of the same kind like Test4.txt., that will still open in TextEdit. But now when I close it and double click again you can see that file always opens with TextWrangler. It'll confirm and then now it opens in TextWrangler. Now if I wanted to have that file opened all the time in a different app I can Control click on it to bring up the Context menu again but hold the Option key down and Open With changes to Always Open With. But the next time I double click it will open it up in TextEdit. Now I can simply edit that file, this one time, using TextWrangler.

It's a free text editing app that you can get in the Mac App Store. But they'll all handle, in some way, that type of file. Others will do different things like import it like some of these image editing apps here or maybe even a web browser that will just allow you to view it.
Then you get a list here of all the different apps that handle this kind of file. You can Control click to bring up the Context menu and then select Open With. Now suppose you want to open it with something else. That's the default for these kinds of files. For instance, for these text files here if I double click it will open TextEdit.
