I offer another way to have quick links like bookmarks.
If you use cells in your code, the title of each cell appears in Ctrl+G list.
You can easily add two % (%%) before a comment. MATLAB treats that line until the next %% as a cell. You can run each cell repeatedly and access to the first line of it using Ctrl+G.

there is a trick to have permanent bookmarks:
you can write an additional line without ; where you want to refer frequently.
this make an output in command window and an orange dash (messages you to add a ;) will appear in the right side. you can easily click on orange dashes as bookmarks! ;-)

Matlab 2010 is released, but we still can’t save bookmarks. It’s a pity.

I absolutely agree – the ability to save bookmarks would be a tremendous feature, and I am very surprised it does not already exist. When working with very long, complex files, bookmarks can greatly simplify navigation – but they are of little use if they disappear every time you close the file!

Not at this time, but we are looking into it.

Is there a possibilty to save the bookmarks? I am talking about something similar to the breakpoints that you can get by using dbstatus and then save them. I looked at the java classes that control the MATLAB editor, but I couldn’t find anything related to the bookmarks.

I have tried the bookmarks, but when I close and re-open a file, they are gone. Like this, the bookmarks are only of very limited use for me.

Great! I’ll have a try! Thanks!
