- Allow setting marks (saved positions, not to be confused with the mark

- Add the ability to move to different lines of the screen with a single
keystroke, e.g. M-` (M-~) to go to the top line, M-& (M-7) to go to
the center line, and M-' (M-") to go to the last line?
Somewhat urgent:
- Allow text searches in the help viewer.
