The Edit menu is a menu found in most computer programs that handle files, text or images. It is often the second menu in the menu bar, next to the file menu.
It most commonly contains commands relating to the handling of information, i.e. cut and paste and selection commands. In addition, it may also be home to the undo and redo commands, especially in word processors. It may also contain commands for locating information, e.g. find commands. In graphics-oriented programs, it often contains commands relating to the manipulation of images, for example the crop command.

“To a philosopher all news, as it is called, is gossip, and they who edit it and read it are old women over their tea.”
