I had started to suggest the same but thought better of it and didn't
hit SEND:

   ln -s zconf.h.in zconf.h.in.txt
   [click-click]

Anyhow, the real answer is to change your file associations so that
any of *.c, .cpp, *.h, or *.in will bring up your text editor.  How to do
that is peculiar to whatever OS you are using, but I'm sure it's there.
