Invigorated by my contest win I wrote a plugin over lunch and documentated while only mildly interested in a session I was sitting in.
Entry Edit Link (EEL) enables a weblog to dynamically inserts an Edit This Entry
link that will take the user to the MT edit screen for the entry they are viewing. This link is displayed using JavaScript and only is displayed if the user is logged into the MT system that they are publishing the site with.
CAVEATS: EEL only checks if the mt_user cookie exists. Currently it does not check if the cookie is valid or if the author has permission to edit the specific weblog or entry. See the TO DO section in the docs for future directions.
You can download it here
