BackThere (Sublime Text 2/3 plugin)

It does...

Saves one position for you to return to, as many times as you need.

It is composed of two commands:

1. save_back_there (Ctrl, Shift, q) - Saves the current position of the text cursor in the current window

2. go_back_there (Ctrl, q) - Places the cursor back there, where it was last saved

New: commit 43825a1f9b introduces:
When no position is saved in the current file, a jump to the latest globally saved position will be performed (this involving a switch to that other file's view) if at least one saved position exists in the current session (since the editor was started).

Default key bingings

1. Save command:

   Ctrl + Shift + q

2. Go command:

   Ctrl + q

For OSX, replace Ctrl with Control (not Command)

To use your custom (and probably better) key bindings, you should either add them in Preferences -> Key bindings - User like in the example below, either edit the Default (<operating-system>).sublime-keymap file in the plugin's folder.

{ "keys": ["shift+ctrl+q"], "command": "save_back_there" },
{ "keys": ["ctrl+q"], "command": "go_back_there" }

Installing (with PackageControl)

(Install Package Control plugin)

Invoke Package Control (Ctrl+Shift+P), enter Install command and pick Back There
