you can't edit files with Kix , the only thing you can do is to write the contents of the
file to change in a temp file and change the line you want , then delete the input file and rename the temp file ... something like this :

code:

---

BREAK ON CLS
$cr = chr(13) + chr(10)
$input = "%Systemroot%\system32\config.nt"
$tmp = "%Systemroot%\System32\config.tmp"
$nul = OPEN(1,$input,2)
$nul = OPEN(2,$tmp,5)
$x = ReadLine(1)
WHILE @error = 0
	IF INSTR($x,"files=20")
		$nul = WriteLine(2,"files=200" + $cr)
	ELSE
		$nul = WriteLine(2,$x + $cr)
	ENDIF
	$x = ReadLine(1)
LOOP
$nul = CLOSE(1)
$nul = CLOSE(2)
DEL $input
SHELL "%ComSpec% /C ren $tmp config.nt"
EXIT
