Got even with one very English editor (7)
I believe the answer is:
avenged
'got even' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'one very english editor' is the wordplay.
'one' becomes 'a' (a thing is one thing).
'very' becomes 'v' (abbreviation).
'english' becomes 'eng' (abbreviation).
'editor' becomes 'ed'.
'a'+'v'+'eng'+'ed'='AVENGED'
'with' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for avenged that I've seen before include "Inflicted retribution for (a wrong)" , "Took reprisals for" , "being paid back" , "Got back at" .)
