I can toggle markers using the m* command in VI mode, and it shows the left-hand carrot, but (1) it always shows only one in the shelf with bookmark named "bookmark 0" and a line # of 0. (2) Is there a way to navigate to the next bookmark "a", or should I mark each line uniquely

It's only in  VI mode! If I just lift click in the window with my mouse, it works fine.

Looks like a bug in either the vi emulation or the bookmark window. 

The default keyboard navigation between bookmarks appears to still work (Ctrl+Shift+>  or Ctrl+Shift+>).

I did not write most of the VI emulation code so will take some time to investigate it. It looks like you should be able to jump to a book mark using the jump command ` or ' when in Normal mode.

If you could please file a bug report at editra.googlecode.com.

Thanks,

Cody

its pretty minor, then, since the default still works, and VI doesn't have a bookmark command. It might make more sense to just remove it as an emulator command.

Yea, I think the "Vi" emulation is kind of a conglomeration between Vi and Vim. I have a hard time remember many of the differences anymore since I rarely use a console editor very often these days. Much of the Vi emulation was from contributed code so I am not as deeply familiar with it as the rest of the application.

Will try to remember to look into it though as it is cleary a bug.

Hmm... I really like the VI feature. What would one need to know to maintain it?

Maintenance help would be greatly welcomed. Just some python programming knowledge is probably all that is needed. Then its just a matter of adapting the commands to map them to actions in Editra's text buffer. The majority of the vi stuff is located in its own file "ed_vim.py".

I didn't see anything wrong with your account but I force activated it. If you don't know your password you can try the "forgot password" link at login otherwise let me know and I can delete it completely so you can start over.
