Hi,
Thanks for the info, but registers lim= it the marked entries
and I will not be able to cycle through them. So t= hat is
out of the question.
After looking around I found thing-cmds.= el . The description
looks good but I need to try it out.
I'm looking= for something like:
press F2 -> put the current position where curso= r is in a list with limit of
       =             20 entri= es.
press F3 -> go forward in the list.
press F4 -> go backward= in the list.

Regards,
Maindoor.

Maybe you are looking for Emacs registers:
