Navigating documents and key mappings

G'day Xcodians,

I'm trying to set up my work environment a little more efficiently in Xcode and would like to take advantage a few of the more obscure features. I'm hoping others have played with key mappings and so forth and can offer some tips which make them work faster or easier.

1. Other editors I've used allow you to define "bookmarks" at positions within files, and jump back to them quite easily. In particular, I'd like to be able to mark a spot with, say Apple-Shift-1, another with Apple-Shift-2, and then jump back to my first mark with Apple-1. I've fiddled with the concept of bookmarks in Xcode, but it seems terribly lacking (do I really have to go to a list view of my bookmarks and then double click on one?) or at least designed for longer term bookmarks than I'm after. I've also tried to work with the Set Mark options in keybindings (which I've used successfully in vi) but can't find a "Goto mark" option.

2. How have people set up code completion? I was happy to see this announced at WWDC, but it doesn't appear to be fully integrated by default. I've added ctrl-space to "Code sense completion list" in key bindings, which helps tremendously, but am I missing something by skipping the other code sense options there?

3. I'd also like to add my support to branch collapse (as described in another thread). I know a few people were raving about this as a great feature of .Net / Visual Studio etc. (it is rarely clear whether they are talking about a language, a programming environment, an editor, or what), so it is nice to hear it was in NeXT!

Heath
