How do you change the "read more ..." in the Blog page to something else?

Question

I'd like to change the "read more ..." in the Blog page to say something more relevant to my site. How can this be done?
I searched the forums and found an earlier response to this question, but I don't quite understand it:
Find index.xml.gz file (open: Macintosh HD ->
Applications -> iWeb -> Contents -> Resources -> e.g.
English.lproj -> Templates -> Blog -> e.g. White
Blog.webtemplate -> index.xml.gz).
Open file and edit it in TextEdit. Replace all "read
more..." with your own text. Delete index.xml.gz file.
I'm a little confused by this reply. To open the index.xml.gz file within the app, do you navigate there with Terminal.app, unzip it, edit the file with Text Edit, then re-gzip it?
Second, why do you delete index.xml.gz afterwards?
And third, will this need to be redone each time iWeb is upgraded?
Has anyone tried this and know if this is the correct way to change the words, or is there some other way?

Answer 1

This tedious process actually edits the template xml file within the iWeb application, so that it becomes the default with the template. I haven't done this before, so I'm the wrong person to advise on this.
I tend to like to do things that are on a simpler scale. You can always make a text box with an opaque background color that matches the blog template background. Then type something else into that text box, like "click here to see more of me" Then position this text box over the standard "read more" and link the text to the blog entry.
The downside....you'll have to do this (at least position the text box and change the link) each time you add an entry.
