i don't like saying simply: "Go & look in the Archive",
but it's there more than once, tho' not recently;
certainly, i raised it early in 1997 (i believe).
the fact is that `r' doesn't reliably do what it is supposed to:
there may be a case for tidying up how bookmarks work,
as yet another piece of antediluviana
from a more primitive era in Lynx development,
but someone else can tackle it.
