I miss them too and hope they're having a nice time. :-)

It occurred to me that if and when they come to see us, it might be 
nice to be able to press a key combo and have (multiple) split panes 
automatically show you all the bookmarks in the current file in 
context. This could be particularly useful if bookmarks are stored and 
retrieved when a file is reopened as it would allow you to quickly 
reference important elements of a file that you're working on. This 
could be a problem for people who set lots of bookmarks, but I tend to 
have around 2 or 3 at any one time.

In any case I guess this is the sort of thing that would be doable by 
adding applescript (or similar) support in TM.

The other option is that TM just remembers split pane and 'in-file 
location' settings between loads which, for me, would reduce my use of 
bookmarks.

Just mindless rambling on my part. Sorry about that. Time to move on, 
etc...

Best wishes,
James
