#### 4.10.26 SetBookmark

Syntax: `SetBookmark [n|+1|-1|-|?]`
Abbreviation: `SBM`

sets a document bookmark to the current cursor position. Each document has 10 available bookmarks designated ‘`0`’ to ‘`9`’, plus the automatic bookmark designated by ‘`-`’. If no option is given, ‘`0`’ is assumed. Values of n from ‘`0`’ to ‘`9`’ set the nth bookmark, while ‘`+1`’ and ‘`-1`’ indicate respectively the next and previous available unset bookmarks. You can also set the ‘`-`’ automatic bookmark, but it will be reset automatically to the current position whenever a `GotoBookmark` command is issued.

The ‘`?`’ option will cause `SetBookmark` to prompt you for a bookmark designation. The promp will include an indication of which bookmarks are currently set. You may find this useful in macros, or to bind a key to ‘`SetBookmark ?`’.
