Thanks, I have used bookmark (without+) for ages and configured it for my 
workflow (using outline-minor-mode in a specific way).


Indeed I came across bookmark+ and dired+
When I started bookmark+ it looked (shockingly) different 🙃

I did not know about the keybinding you  described in dired mode which would be 
indeed helpful, thanks.

However I have also configured vanilla dired for my purposes, so I have to see 
whether that all would work under dired+.

The most important question is. Is there anyway to indicate in dired+ that a 
given file has a bookmark annotate entry?


It seems that I got finally 
https://github.com/gunther-bachmann/emacs-dired-annotator

To work, which takes a different route.

Thanks and regards
