#### 4.10.27 GotoBookmark

Syntax: `GotoBookmark [n|+1|-1|<|>|-]|?]`
Abbreviation: `GBM`

moves the cursor to the designated bookmark if that bookmark is set; see SetBookmark. Each document has 10 available bookmarks designated ‘`0`’ to ‘`9`’, either end of the most recently pasted text block designated ‘`<`’ and ‘`>`’, plus the automatic bookmark designated by ‘`-`’. If no option is given, ‘`0`’ is assumed. The options ‘`+1`’ and ‘`-1`’ indicate respectively the next and previous set bookmarks, so that repeated `GotoBookmark +1` commands will cycle through all currently set numbered bookmarks.

When successful, the automatic bookmark ‘`-`’ is set to the position in the document from which the command was issued, so that `GotoBookmark -` returns you to the location from which you last issued a successful `GotoBookmark` command. Subsequent repeated `GotoBookmark -` commands will toggle you between the two locations.

The ‘`?`’ option will cause `GotoBookmark` 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 ‘`GotoBookmark ?`’.
