 Basicly this function is the same than
 [http://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/wp-includes/link-
 template.php#L820 edit_post_link()] but some little differences which can
 make it more useful for developers. So far it has two advantages:

 '''1)''' The edit link can be easily returned.

 '''2)''' It's possible to choose a class for link tags.

 {{{
 // Returned
 function wp_get_edit_link($args = '') {
         $defaults = array(
                 'link'   => null,
                 'before' => '',
                 'after'  => '',
                 'id'     => 0,
                 'class'  => 'post-edit-link'
         );

         $r = wp_parse_args($args, $predet);
         extract($r);

         if ( !$post = &get_post($id) )
                 return;

         if ( !$url = get_edit_post_link($post->ID) )
                 return;

         if (null === $link)
                 $link = __('Edit This');

         $post_type_obj = get_post_type_object($post->post_type);
         $link = '<a class="'. $class .'" href="' . $url . '" title="' .
 esc_attr( $post_type_obj->labels->edit_item ) . '">' . $link . '</a>';
         return $before . apply_filters('get_edit_link' , $link ,
 $post->ID) . $after;
 }

 // Echoed
 function wp_edit_link($args = '') {
         echo wp_get_edit_link($args);
 }
 }}}

 '''Example using the function:'''

 Returning:

 {{{
 <?php
 $var = get_wp_edit_link('before=<span class="my-edit-
 class">&after=</span>&class=my-link-class&link=Edit me!');
 echo $var;
 ?>
 }}}

 Echoing:

 {{{
 <?php wp_edit_link('before=<span class="my-edit-
 class">&after=</span>&class=my-link-class&link=Edit me!'); ?>
 }}}

 Results on:

 {{{
 <span class="my-edit-class"><a class="my-link-class"
 href="http://url.to/post.html">Edit me!</a></span>
 }}}
