Are there any freeware programs that allow you to edit.prc ebook files that you use with an Amazon Kindle? ?

I have a few .prc ebook files that I use on an Amazon Kindle reader. I want to edit some of the files, meaning I want to edit in and out some text. Are there any freeware programs that allow you to edit existing .prc files? I’m not looking to create .prc files. I’m looking to edit and alter existing .prc ebook files.
It depends a bit on what kind of .prc file it is–mobi & palmdoc use the same extension, and they’re different filetypes.
At worst, there are .prc extractors, that will let you convert it to something else, edit the something else, and convert it back.
SiEd lets you edit things in the Palm OS -
Amber Palmdoc Converter lets you change it to an html or rtf file where you can make changes -
If it’s a mobipocket doc, has advice about it, and the forums at Mobileread have plenty of advice on doc conversion, editing, and ebook creation.
