Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers usually do not have translators to read other languages for them. Your bug report will be posted to the bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org mailing list, and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group. Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug and the precise symptoms of the bug: Hi, About bookmark-bmenu-bookmark: This function work as expected but it is not convenient for the developper that work on bookmark.el, thus it is inefficient. bookmark-bmenu-bookmark parse all the menu list with search-* to get the bookmark name, but to do that, it have to toggle the filenames visibility if these are toggle on. That's the problem: 1) run a loop on all menu list to toggle filenames visibility. 2) come back to the original place and get bookmark name with buffer-substring 3) run again a loop to toggle filenames visibility back. That's very costly. If you want one bookmark name, ok but if you run another loop to get many bookmark names, that will be very long. The solution: (It's what i wrote for bookmark+.el.) 1) Create a defvar like `bookmark-latest-sorted-alist'. ,---- | (defvar bookmark-latest-sorted-alist nil) `---- 2) Set this variable to the copy of bookmark-alist obtained in bookmark-maybe-sort-alist: ,---- | (defun bookmark-maybe-sort-alist () | "Return a sorted copy of `bookmark-alist'. | If `bookmark-sort-flag' is nil return `bookmark-alist'. | The sorted copy of `bookmark-alist' is set to `sbookmark-latest-sorted-alist'." | (let ((bmk-alist (copy-alist bookmark-alist))) | (if bookmark-sort-flag | (setq bookmark-latest-sorted-alist | (sort bmk-alist #'(lambda (x y) (string-lessp (car x) (car y))))) | (setq bookmark-latest-sorted-alist bookmark-alist)))) `---- 3) Get the bookmark name from this list with the position in menu list: ,---- | (defun bookmark-bmenu-bookmark () | "Return a string which is bookmark of this line." | (let ((pos (- (line-number-at-pos) 3))) | (car (nth pos bookmark-latest-sorted-alist)))) `---- That simple and work fine here. You can now work on menu list of bookmarks without thinking at toggling filename visibility.(and it's much faster). That's make easier working in bookmark.el for further modification. You will find a patch attached. If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger, please include the output from the following gdb commands: `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
