     The Mark function moves the cursor to a mark or specific location,
     defines marks, and deletes marks.
 
     NOTE: You cannot set a mark at specific text in a PWB window
           such as Help; PWB marks only the window position.
 
     If you want to save marks between sessions, assign a filename to
     the Markfile switch or use the Set Mark File command on the Search
     menu.
