Nope, I don't really need it, this was just a nasty incident... Anyway, could somebody please zip their Textedit app and send it to me?
Im afraid it's not that simple.. The files are specific for your machine and OS.
Got a tip for us?

It is that simple, I've done it before, with Photo Booth and Mail

I'll throw one, especially as the OP was not needing developer features.

I have been using this one for a while. It's a Markdown editor, which has a live preview option. If you choose not to have this, its a plain text window.
No fancy extras, just simple.
For the moment its free as its in beta, so you have nothing to lose.
I've been using that app for a while now, but unfortunately it doesn't support .srt files
Psssh

The best editor is nano. It's simple, and it is deadly.
And actually you don't need to download either. Recent-ish vim, nano, and emacs all come preinstalled on OS X.
I actually do use nano primarily for writing software. I use VIM when I need the superior regex support or multi-line editing. Otherwise I'm a lot faster with nano.

I'm sure you can get the .app from a friend or your backup CD that came with your Mac there has to be a way to get stock apps back.
None of my friend has a mac, I have a MBA it didn't came with a backup CD, the only way for me to get a stock app back, is if someone upload that app.
