Thank you for the feedback. Could you elaborate a bit on what you'd like to see for "a good UI"? My idea so far was to simply have modes provide a function that returns a marker or nil, while the function can check for interactive calls if it wants to, and use that in the usual go to location in same window/other window/other frame and go back. But I'm very open to ideas to make this better. Regards, Jorgen
