It's just a text-file, so you can put in the settings you want.
So you can just put these commands in that file:

set nohlo
set ts=4
set sw=4

So yes, you should be able to edit it like any other file. It even
comes with a handy built-in variable, so within vim you can

:e $MYVIMRC

and it will open the appropriate file.

Alternatively, you can use the

:mkvimrc

command to take whatever your current settings are and write them
to your vimrc file.

-tim

:help $MYVIMRC
:help :mkvimrc
