Even if they did, what editor are they using that they can't
jump back to where they were?
Geany. You can set a marker but probably the editor should
automatically add to location history before the go to start of
file key binding is executed.
I use Geany, and I'm no power user, I don't know many key
bindings. My way to deal with this is dead stupid: I leave the
character cursor where I am and start scrolling. When I want to
go back, lArrow rArrow lArrow rArrow...
The screen jumps back to the cursor. Then I scan the screen to
see the cursor. It is much easier to spot when I keep it moving
with the arrows.
