Carstens and Bastien,

Thank you for your comments and suggestions.  I would appreciate if
you add the code to the distribution.

It sounds nice.  But it is possible for a single file to be bookmarked
by two or more.  I can not find a good way to select one from multiple
bookmarks referring to the same file.  Do you have any idea?

At the end of this mail, I attached the revised elisp code.
Only ";; This file is not part of GNU Emacs." line is updated.

Thanks,
--Tokuya
