In the context it was easy to understand what "text-marker" is for. Even the English Wiki describes the "cursor" as a marker. "[...] The mouse cursor is also called a pointer [...] A cursor is the name given to the transparent slide engraved with a hairline that is used for marking a point on a slide rule. The term was then transferred to computers through analogy. [...] The idea of a cursor being used as ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ a marker or insertion point for new data or transformations, such as ^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^^ rotation, can be extended to a 3D modeling environment. [...]" - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cursor_%28user_interface%29 "a marker for new data" "a marker for text" Marry Christmahanakwanzikapafa!
