I have one problem though: how to > create/edit/view annotations for bookmarks /without/ using the > bookmark list? I.e., for the bookmark at point or something? 1. See standard options `bookmark-use-annotations' and `bookmark-automatically-show-annotations'. 2. In Bookmark+, standard functions `bookmark-edit-annotation', `bookmark-show-annotation', and `bookmark-show-all-annotations' are also commands. The first two prompt you for the name of an annotated bookmark (with completion) and then show you the annotation. With a prefix arg, `bookmark-edit-annotation' lets you choose any bookmark, so you can add an annotation to an unannotated bookmark. Otherwise, it lets you choose an annotated bookmark, to edit the annotation. You can also use command `bmkp-annotate-bookmark' to add or edit an annotation, instead of using `bookmark-edit-annotation' with a prefix arg. > Also, how to set (in init.el) the default way for highlighting > bookmarks? I'd prefer the "right fringe" style and not the "right > fringe + line" one. Customize option `bmkp-light-style-non-automated' and/or option `bmkp-light-style-autonamed'. The latter is for autonamed bookmarks; the former is for all other kinds of bookmarks. =20 > Also, I've set bmkp-crosshairs-flag to t, but cannot see the > crosshairs. (I have the necessary libraries installed). This is > probably too vague anyway, I'll try to look into this problem myself. Yes, too vague. Recursively bisect your init file until you find the culprit. Ask yourself first whether crosshairs highlighting works elsewhere, i.e., whether your problem arises only for indicating bookmark destinations or is more general. Please download the latest files for Bookmark+. You can follow up with me off list for any such questions, if you like.
