#1 feature request - bookmark positioning

I don't know how difficult this would be to implement, but it would be *very* useful for me!!

Currently, when a bookmark is placed in a file, and I jump back to that bookmark, the bookmark is placed in the center of the screen.

However, I often bookmark the function name, or block of code, that I'm working in, and leave it at the top of the window. I then continue working further down in the function. I would really be grateful if the bookmarks would remember where (on the screen) they were located when the bookmark was set, and then restore to that position when I jump back again...

In other words, if the bookmark was at the top of the screen when it was placed, that is where it would be restored when I return to the bookmark; but if the cursor was at screen line 20 when the bookmark was placed, again that is how the screen would be restored when I return.

I use bookmarks alot in my working day, so this would make pspad work much more smoothly for me!!!

Position of the bookmark is common for search result position:
Program settings / Editor 2 as Search result option
Try e.g. Top settings if it wont fit better for you

Okay, that will work sufficiently. It would have been ideal to have the program actually remember where I had the cursor when I set the bookmark, but in most cases, "restore to top of page" will serve me just fine!! Thanks.
