Return to a previous editing location

Post by huubf »

I would like a macro like

GoToPreviousCursorPosition(),

with a (long) history, so that i could trace back (and then forward again: GoToNextCursorPosition()) on the cursor prositions i was before.

This would be welcome while tracing new bugs!
Or if i'd accidently hit Ctrl-Home instead of just Home

Maybe put it under the key Ctrl-< this has not a meaning yet

Or SHIFT-F5 Like MS Word!

For cases like this Ctrl+G is handy, the default line number to go to is the line you were on before the last move.

(I wish more editors did this, all the others seem to put the current line number in the goto box, as if that's any use! - kudos Helios)

VB uses ctrl-shift-F2 and it is very useful.
