Check into the Security Subroutines section of the Administrators Guide.
1)  Make a temporary copy of ED in your VOC, call it ED.BAK.  This is your
backdoor in case of problems.  I would also have a separate account with a
pointer to the main account's VOC.  This account you can lock with a simple
paragraph that says if @LOGNAME isn't you, LOGOUT.
2) Write a security subroutine that conforms to the specs given in Chapter 8 of
the Administrators guide. Catalog it in the global catalog.
2) Copy the verbs you want to secure, including ED, into your VOCLIB.
3) Change the verbs in the VOC to Remote pointers to your VOCLIB, and add the 
name of your security routine to line 4. (I might suggest testing the R pointers
before applying the security routine.)
4) Once you're sure your security is working as planned, and that you can use
the ED program you've secured, then remove your back door ED.BAK.  Remember, you
can still fix the VOC from your other account if you manage to lock yourself 
out.
