New to me as well but seems like "editing to add:"

Why not just write "edit:"? It's one extra character

I learned to touch type on underwood typewriters, learned cobol, basic, pl/1, fortran (watfor/wat5!), and fed a thousand punch cards to a mainframe or something to print 2 words.

Reddit made me do "eta".

Sometimes you're editing for grammar or clarification or just to add.

Thanks. It must show my age, that i sometimes don't think about the obvious googling for anything.

the only times I do the due diligence and online research I should are when I'm trying to win an online argument, so I can relate. Got lucky with a guess this time :)
