Unfortunately the texts for all help boxes are not stored in the GRUNTZ.REZ file, so you cannot modify it easily. The text is stored in the Gruntz.exe file itself and therefore it's way more difficult and cumbersome to play with them. If you still want to change these texts, you have to download any resource editor (this one for example: www.resedit.net ). Then open the Gruntz.exe file in the resource editor and look for the String Table. From there changing the texts should be rather straightforward. After altering the exe file you have to save it and you're done. IMPORTANT: don't forget to back up your original Gruntz.exe file in case you want to revert the changes!

Exactly, there's tons of different applications for editing *.EXE resources. The link I've provided earlier was literally my first hit after googling. I've been using the program called "Resource Editor" myself for a while and it's working quite nicely, although its name is so surprisingly generic that it'd be quite a challenge to actually google it and find it
