[Geany-Users] Users Digest, Vol 174, Issue 7

The easiest way to use bookmarks in a large Geany project,  is to simply
double click on some string of interest, right click on screen and click on
Find Usage option.
The message window will list whever the string was found in all open files.
Click on any message to set focus directly on corresponding file and line
number.
You can put your custom bookmarks as often and anywhere you like.
Or even better,  just use preexisting variable,  function names, code,
whatever...
If you are using python,  you can also customize pylint to do similar.
Pylint by default finds all #TODO and #FIXME comments
