 … but, apart from a few important exceptions, a minor proportion of Octave 
developers,
we need more help from people who know and use windows.

The "edit" command is implemented in this simple m-file script:

http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/file/b74c4e967f76/scripts/miscellaneous/edit.m

So there is no need of knowing any other programming language but Octave to 
work on it.
Can you propose and test changes that would make it work better on windows?

thanks,
