I have had this same thought for a long time now, and I too do the "memorize line number, then jump to it to try to discern what was re-done or undone. A compromise might be to move the cursor position, but not the view position until/unless the cursor is moved by user input (e.g., pressing an arrow key or typing a character). -John -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "BBEdit Talk" discussion group on Google Groups.
