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? 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. 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.
