Links in magento constists of three parts: "package", controller und action, e.g. customer/account/login

* means "in this context". If you are in the Customer-AccountController and in the indexAction method then you redirect with */*/edit into customer/account/edit

This edit doesn't make sense in the frontend context, but when you are in the backend, then you have normally a gridAction and when you click on a row, you are redirected to the editAction and the form to edit the entry.
