     Markfile (Text)
 
     The Markfile switch specifies the name of the file PWB uses
     to save marks.
 
     When no mark file is open (that is, no value is currently defined
     for Markfile), marks are kept in memory and they are lost when you
     exit PWB. However, when you set a mark file when no mark file is
     currently open, all marks are saved in the new mark file.
 
     To open a mark file, use Set Mark File or assign a value to
     the Markfile switch by using Options Editor Settings or the Assign
     function. To close a mark file without opening a new one, assign
     an empty value to the Markfile switch (set 'Markfile:').
     See: ◄Search menu, Set Mark File►
 
     To set a permanent mark file that is used for every PWB session,
     place a Markfile definition in the [PWB] section of TOOLS.INI.
