Since this thread seems determined to live forever, here are two useful
functions I copied from the interwebs somewhere:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defun jump-to-mark ()
"Jumps to the local mark, respecting the `mark-ring' order.
This is the same as using \\[set-mark-command] with the prefix argument."
(interactive)
(set-mark-command 1))
(global-set-key (kbd "M-`") 'jump-to-mark)
(defun push-mark-no-activate ()
"Pushes `point' to `mark-ring' and does not activate the region
Equivalent to \\[set-mark-command] when \\[transient-mark-mode] is disabled"
(interactive)
(push-mark (point) t nil)
(message "Pushed mark to ring"))
(global-set-key (kbd "C-`") 'push-mark-no-activate)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
I use "C-x C-SPC" for cycling through the global mark, and "M-`" for
cycling the local one.
