Is it possible to use %edit in an IPython Notebook to edit in-browser?

[Mahmoud Akl]

I have been using the magic %edit in Ipython to edit strings on the fly and was wondering whether this is also possible in an IPython Notebook without having to leave the browser (Possibly in a new cell)?

When you tried it, what happened?
