This is my collection of Drew Adams’ Bookmark+ elisp source, together with some maintenance shell scripts I’ve added. The canonical respository for the Bookmark+ elisp code is on EmacsWiki, from whence they are downloaded by my get_bm+_files script. There doesn’t seem to be any more convenient way of obtaining them – so this is what I’ve come up with. (There is a copy on GitHub under the emacsmirror/emacswiki.org repo, but that seems to contain thousands of files in its top-level directory and, as such, is impractical to use.)

I currently run Emacs 26.1 from https://emacsformacosx.com on MacOS 10.14 (Mojave). Byte compilation produces some warnings (mostly for obsolete functions), but the package seems to run properly. This is the environment I use to run the included shell scripts.

I’ve yet to investigate the “optional crosshairs feature” mentioned on EmacsWiki. In the future, I may include crosshairs.el, etc., in this repository.

I may periodically update this repository when I install new versions of Bookmark+. Regardless, any working copy may be updated with Drew Adams’ latest, canonical Bookmark+ source by executing my get_bm+_files shell script.

The files can be byte-compiled by running the included compile_bm+_files script.

Something like the following should be in ones Emacs init file:

(add-to-list 'load-path "~/path/to/bookmark_plus")
(require 'bookmark+)

The file bookmark+-doc.el is Drew Adams’ official Bookmark+ documentation, and the file bookmark+-chg.el is the official change log. (I’m not sure why they’re .el files, but....) My get_bm+_files script also retrieves the EmacsWiki page for the package as BookmarkPlus.html, which is similar in content to bookmark+-doc.el, but includes comments. [TODO: I may need to have wget recurse some more to retrieve the full, local copy of the wiki page.]

Everything here is Free Software. As Drew Adams’ files contain GPLv3+ license notices, I am following suit in my humble additions.
