Firstly, what is wrong with them that needs fixing by text editor?

Secondly, edit the templates/ERR_* file and save over top of the other
auto-generated one. Only the auto-generated files are in compact format.

Thirdly a note: if you are using them right then your clients browser
tells Squid what language they can read and Squid supplies the
appropriate message text they can read and understand. People moving
around with laptops and phones set to strange languages are common these
days.

For display changes use /etc/squid/errorpage.css

For completely new custom errors, use deny_info.

For replacing templates copy the template/* file and make your changes
then save it over the other one.
