How to modify existing keywords when site is not in Bookmarks bar?

more options

I have set up many keyword shortcuts for websites I use frequently. Now, how do i modify those keywords or URLs when the site is not in the Bookmarks list? Is there a master file Firefox accesses for these which can be user-edited? Or some other way to get at them?

Not sure if this is the same in MacOSX, but this is how it is done in Windows and Linux versions of Firefox.
Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks
Highlight the bookmark in the right-pane and then hit the More button at the bottom to see the Keyword and Description fields for that bookmark.
