:a,bp to display the lines in the a,b range. throws an E488

In "ex" commands, line ranges using marks cannot be specified
by just naming the mark register like "a"; instead, use "'a"
like this:
:'a,'bp
More detail is found here:
:help range
But you might start reading here:
:help cmdline-ranges

Thank you very much for cluing me in to the requirements of the
apostrophe i.e. 'a 'b etc.
in specifying line ranges.
