Hello,
please excuse me for my english)
Saving bookmarks will be great, really. I used search on this forum, and I see that this request was already in year 2006.
Now just pressed Ctrl+S in a code file with ~20 bookmarks, and Ctrl+W was pressed occasionally. No bookmarks on ~4000-lines file.
I understand, that storing boomarks based on line number is not the best option because file can be changed from other program.
But usually large changes are made from Notepad++, and only some small 1-2-line changes for example via ssh. When bookmark is shifted on 1-2-3 lines, right place can be found by bookmark, when the eyes are correctly installed.
I really can say only "please-please-please!!!!"..
Thanks in advance,
Gleb.

The bokmarks are saved in session files. By either remembering opened files for next launch (this gets enabled in Settings -> Preferences -> MISC), or saving a session explicitly using Files -> Save session…, the bookmarks are remembered.

As I undestood, it doesn't prevent that bookmarks get lost if I close document by mistake without saving session after bookmarks were added?

If you check "Remember current session for next launch" on the Settings -> Preferences -> MISC tab, then the state of the bookmarks when Notepad++ shuts down is recorded. If you save a session, the bookmark state being saved is the one at the time you save the session. This may or may not be what you wanted…

Why not make bookmarks behave like they do in browsers? Just highlight anything , right click, bookmark - and give it a name. Have a bookmarks drop down from the menu system….auto-saving bookmarks with sessions an option. I cant count how many times I have done searches in my source files over and over and over when this kinf of bookmarking would get me there faster. Bookmarking the searches also might be a good idea , and saving them with the sessions……and have a refresh feature for the search so you can update it when you have done alot of changes to your code.

Closing NPP is not equal to closing document via Ctrl+W.

I'll implement this.
Since there already is code to read/write bookmarks it should be a small task to call that code when a document is opened/closed.
