Hi!
I was looking for a way to edit the style CSS file directly because the nice CSS editor is just a bummer if you know what you are doing and you're not on a fast connection/server.
FYI, I use this process in my test locations where I can change conditions to an extent and I risk no valuable content. This is suitable for testing and developing environments, nothing else. Consider yourself warned.
In CSS you have the ability to import styles and rules from other css files, simply by linking to the desired css file.
So I thought I could use this to bypass the editor, and then editing my styles would be easy as pie =)
So if you are a heavy css user, copy your css rules to a new file (and save it wherever you desire), delete them all in the CSS Editor and just place:
@import url(path/to/the/file.css);
in the last box.
This way you can edit the file.css in your favorite text editor.
