Editing is not mentioned for LIST Plus or LIST Enhanced at https://web.archive.org/web/20080704121832/http://www.buerg.com/list.htm

But file WHATSNEW from the eval version from 2007 reads:

- New commands are available from the File Selection (Alt-V) menu:
        E    invokes the 'Edit' editor to let you edit the selected file;
             create a BATch file called EDIT.BAT which invokes the
             editor of your choice with the optional parameters it needs
