Delphi go to bookmark when using Brief editor

I am using Delphi XE5 (Brief editor emulation) and can't for the life of me figure out how to goto a bookmark after it's been set. Alt+{n} where n is the bookmark number correctly sets and clears (toggles) a bookmark. But how do you go to a bookmark once it's been set when using the Brief editor emulation. The documentation does not address this, though it gives common shortcuts when using Brief.

Solution

  • Move to a book mark with

    ALT + J <n>

    where you need to hold down the ALT key while you press the J key, but then release ALT to press the bookmark number.

    FWIW, I have no idea what Brief even is, but a web search led me here: http://www.dbase.com/help/Developer_Guide/IDH_KB_BRIEFKEYS.htm
