I really miss the bookmarking feature of Visual Studio + Resharper. For example, I press Ctrl+K, Ctrl+K to toggle a bookmark, and then Ctrl+K, Ctrl+N to go to the next bookmark, Ctrl+K, Ctrl+P to go to the previous bookmark. I can even go to the next/previous bookmark in current file with some other key combination. Unfortunately, I cannot figure out how to setup it in Eclipse. Eclipse come with a menu name Add Bookmark which looks pretty weird (lame?) to me. Is there any way to do bookmarking like what I described with eclipse?

In standard eclipse, this does not exist. The only thing you can do is add a bookmark, and check out all the bookmarks in the bookmark view. For both actions, you can define shortcuts (press ctrl-shift-l twice and filter on 'bookmark').

However, you could search for a plugin which does what you want (for example: http://www.etc.to/eclipse_bookmarks_plugin)

Your example plugin is no longer available. The author must un-published the plugin, I believe. I'm looking for a similar plugin but google search doesn't help much.

It is available (I just tried it) if you use eclipse update site: http://eclipse.etc.to/updates/

In the available plugin list, I cannot find enhanced bookmarks plugin as advertised. Installing The Dom UI Plugin Set doesn't give me the bookmarking feature.

There were two things to install: the 'DomUI Plugins' and the 'editor tools'. Afterwards, you will need to restart eclipse.

Grhhh, checking "Group items by category" hide the editor tools from the list. I uncheck it and the Quick bookmark tool is available. Thanks.
