Saving Bookmarks

[Walter Logeman]

My bookmarks are lost after closing the file and then reopening it. Is that normal? Can I make them stick?

Bookmarks aren't "text" as such, so there's no way to save them in a file without altering the file in some proprietary way; because of that they'll always be lost when you close a file.

If you really want to keep them from one session to another however, you can save the current workspace (with the file open) with a name and then close the file ONLY by closing the workspace -- bookmark info for all the open files is stored in the workspace (which is actually info stored in a separate file), so when you Open the Workspace again the file will be re-opened where you left, with all your bookmarks in place (If you close the file in the workspace however, the workspace no longer remembers it and all bookmarks are cleared).

UltraEdit32 saves bookmarks with the file. A configurable option.
