A weird tech question

vvvexationI've got some file fragments on my computer left over from a hard drive crash a while ago, and I've been going through them looking for the remains of some text files I'd rather not have lost. A couple of them, though, are apparently too big for me to open either with Notepad or in DOS Edit mode without the system hanging. Is there any other program I can use to get at the contents, or is there a way I can somehow break them into pieces of more manageable size?

Is there an "Emacs for Dummies" out there?

Actually, here (http://www.cs.utah.edu/~alee/emacs/emacs.html) is a great explanation about installing emacs I just found.
