10. BOOKMARKS *nvim-tree-bookmarks* 10. OS SPECIFIC RESTRICTIONS *nvim-tree-os-specific*
You can toggle marks on files/folders with
`require("nvim-tree.api").marks.toggle(node)` which is bound to `m` by
default.
To get the list of marked paths, you can call
`require("nvim-tree.api").marks.list()`. This will return `{node}`.
*nvim-tree.bookmarks.navigation*
Navigation for marks is not bound by default in nvim-tree because we don't
want to focus the tree view each time we wish to switch to another mark.
This requires binding bookmark navigation yourself.
