This PR is a first proposal to add, in a first commit, an option to jump to last location in buffer instead of specific line for
evil-mark-goto-line
for global marks.A second commit additionally adds functionality to show marks in the
*evil-marks*
buffer after some delay (similar to which-key behaviour) when the value of theevil-mark-goto-buffer-not-line
ist
(default). This is especially handy to get reminded about which mark is associated with which buffer.I have implemented it as an option, and because of adding the various conditionals, the code became a little more "complicated".
I would propose to make the buffer jump the default behavior (breaking with vim behavior, although the change could be proposed there also). If users want to jump to a specific line via a global mark they can just jump with backtick (followed by pressing
^
).I have seen various requests for functionality to easily jump to buffers by shortcut. This (arguably simpler) solution was inspired by @yyoncho his evil-markers-plus package.
I am opening this PR as a proposal. If you like it, then I would appreciate some feedback and I would be happy to add documentation for it also.
