Adding quot Edited By quot tags

Hi, I am using phpBB3 version 3.0.7-PL1 (for reference) and am looking for a way to add the ability to tag when posts have been edited.

I have searched and found a thread asking for them to be removed (ironic because I want the opposite) and I have seen threads asking to set the notification settings on the board to show the edited post as a "new post" however I cannot find how to make them show just that they have been edited. Currently when someone edits a post, me being board administrator can get no confirmation the post has been changed.

Is there an available mod to the board that can do it?

The default behaviour is, a user can freely edit a post, without a tag being added, BEFORE anyone replies to the post. This lets them quickly fix any typos they notice.
Once a post has been replied to, the "edited by" tag will added if they edit the post.

This doesn't apply to moderators. They can edit posts (including their own) without the tag being added, so long as they don't put in an "edit reason".

Do you want to vary the first case, so the tag is ALWAYS added when a normal users edits a post, even before it gets a reply?

I don't know how hard it would be.
I've just moved this topic to "MOD Requests".
