OK, I think I figured it out. Or at least figured out a way that seems to work. I renamed the file I edited on my PC to have a .txt extension. Then when I copied the file over to the phone I didn't get any kind of 'file conversion' message. I renamed the file on the phone and copied it to the windows directory - and this time everything worked fine. Same file - just added the extension before I copied from PC to phone. weird, huh? But now I think I'll try some more manila changes!
