* README.org (Columns, Calling convention(s)): Fix some typos.
* blist.texinfo: Source of manuals.
* blist.info: An Info manual that is suitable for reading inside
Emacs.
* blist.pdf: For those without Emacs, a PDF manual is provided as an
unfortunate fallback.
* scaled-screenshot1.png: Scale down the screen shot to fit in the
display in the Info manual.

+@chapter About
+
+The built-in library @file{bookmark.el} is useful for storing
+information that can be retrieved later. But I find the built-in
+mechanism to display the list of bookmarks not so satisfactory, so I
+wrote this little package to display the list of bookmarks in an Ibuffer
+way.

+@chapter Dependency
+
+This package is driven by another package:
+@url{https://gitlab.com/mmemmew/ilist.git, ilist}. So make sure to
+install that before using this package. In fact, the package
+@file{ilist} was written as an abstraction of the mechanisms of this
+package.
+
+@node Usage, Copying This Manual, Dependency, Top
+@comment node-name, next, previous, up
+@chapter Usage
+
+After installing, one can call the function @code{blist-list-bookmarks}
+to display the list of bookmarks. Of course, one can bind a key to that
+function for easier invocations.

+@section Columns
+
+As one can see, the display has two columns: a name column and a
+location column. The name column shows the names of the bookmarks,
+while the location column shows the @emph{locations}, which are either
+the @strong{filename} or the @strong{location} attributes of the
+bookmarks.
+
+The variable @code{blist-display-location-p} controls whether to display
+the locations or not. Also, one can toggle the display of the locations
+interactively by @code{blist-toggle-location}.
+
+The variable @code{blist-maximal-name-len} determines the maximal length
+of the name column. And the variable @code{blist-elide-string}
+determines how to elide the name, when it gets too long.
+
+If one feels like so, then one can play with the function
+@code{blist-name-column} to control the name column.
+
+@node Groups, Calling convention(s), Columns, Usage
+@comment node-name, next, previous, up
+@section Groups
+
+An important feature of this package is the @emph{filter groups}. They
+are criteria that group bookmarks together under various sections. So
+one can find all bookmarks of, say, @emph{Eshell buffers} in one
+section.
+
+The groups are stored in the variable @code{blist-filter-groups}. One
+can add or remove filter groups to that variable. That variable is a
+list of filter groups, while each filter group is a cons cell of the
+form @code{(NAME . FUN)}, where @code{NAME} is a string which will be
+displayed as the section header, and @code{FUN} is a function that
+accepts a bookmark as its argument, and returns non-nil when and only
+when that bookmark belongs to the group.
+
+Since defining the group functions might be tedious, the package also
+provides a convenient macro @code{blist-define-criterion} for the users
+to define filter groups easily. See the documentation string of that
+macro for details.
+
+Also, the order of the filter groups matters: the filter groups that
+occur earlier on the list have higher priority. So if an item belongs
+to multiple groups, it will be classified under the group that is the
+earliest on the list.
+
+In addition, the default filter group simply returns @code{t} for every
+bookmark. It is important to have the default group since items that
+belong to no groups will not be shown in the buffer. This design is
+intentional, so that other packages that use @file{ilist} can display
+the lists more flexibly.
+
+@node Calling convention(s), Navigations, Groups, Usage
+@comment node-name, next, previous, up
+@section Calling convention(s)
+
+For the ease and brevity of writing, let's establish a convention for
+describing the interactive arguments of functions.
+
+In this document, the phrase @strong{XYZ-convention} should be
+understood as a specification of how the arguments to a function are
+supposed to be obtained when called interactively. Here the letters
+@strong{XYZ} have special meanings:
+
+@table @kbd
+@item M
+Use marked bookmarks.
+
+@item R
+Use the bookmarks in the region, if the region is active.
+
+@item G
+Use the bookmarks of a group, if the point is at the heading of that
+group.
+
+@item 0
+Use the 0-th bookmark, that is, the bookmark at point, if any.
+
+@item C
+Use use @code{completing-read} to let the user choose a bookmark.
+
+@item P
+Use the ARG next bookmarks, where ARG is the prefix argument.
+@end table
+
+@node Navigations, Marking, Calling convention(s), Usage
+@comment node-name, next, previous, up
+@section Navigations
+
+The following is a list of default key-bindings to navigate in the list
+of bookmarks. Except for the two @emph{jump} commands, they all follow
+the @strong{P-convention}.
+
+@table @kbd
+@item n
+@itemx p
+go to next/previous line. Whether it treats the top of the buffer as
+identified with the bottom of the buffer is controlled by the variable
+@code{blist-movement-cycle}.
+@item N
+@itemx P
+go to next/previous line that is not a group heading.
+@item M-n
+@itemx M-p
+go to next/previous group heading.
+@item j
+@itemx M-g
+jump to a bookmark, using the @strong{C-convention}.
+@item J
+@itemx M-j
+@itemx M-G
+jump to a group heading, using the @strong{C-convention}.
+@item M-@{
+@itemx (
+go to the previous marked bookmark.
+@item )
+@itemx M-@}
+go to the next marked bookmark.
+@end table
+
+@node Marking, Jump to bookmarks, Navigations, Usage
+@comment node-name, next, previous, up
+@section Marking
+
+The following is a list of default key-bindings to mark bookmarks and to
+operate on the bookmarks.
+
+Unless stated otherwise, they all follow the @strong{P-convention}.
+
+@table @kbd
+@item m
+Mark the bookmark with the default mark (@code{blist-default-mark}) and
+advance.
+@item d
+@itemx k
+Mark for deletion and advance.
+@item C-d
+Mark for deletion and go backwards.
+@item x
+Delete all bookmarks that are marked for deletion.
+@item D
+Delete the bookmark immediately (the @strong{MRG0-convention}).
+@item u
+Unmark the bookmark and advance.
+@item @key{DEL}
+Unmark the bookmark and go backwards.
+@item U
+Unmark all bookmarks.
+@item M-@key{DEL}
+@itemx * *
+prompt for a mark and unmark all boomarks that are marked with the
+entered mark (using @code{read-char}).
+@item % n
+Mark bookmarks whose name matches a regular expression.
+@item % l
+Mark bookmarks whose location matches a regular expression.
+@item * c
+Change the marks from OLD to NEW (using @code{read-char})
+@end table
+
+@node Jump to bookmarks, Annotations, Marking, Usage
+@comment node-name, next, previous, up
+@section Jump to bookmarks
+
+The following lists the default key-bindings for jumping to, or opening
+bookmarks. Except for @kbd{v}, they operate on the bookmark (or group)
+at point.
+
+@table @kbd
+@item @key{RET}
+Either open the bookmark in this window or toggle the group at point.
+@item o
+Open the bookmark in another window.
+@item v
+Select the bookmarks (the @strong{MG0-convention}). How multiple
+bookmarks are opened is controlled by the variable
+@code{blist-select-manner}. See its documentation for details.
+@end table
+
+@node Annotations, Others, Jump to bookmarks, Usage
+@comment node-name, next, previous, up
+@section Annotations
+
+The following lists the default key-bindings for operating on the
+annotations of bookmarks.
+
+@table @kbd
+@item a
+View the annotations of bookmarks (the @strong{MGC-convention}).
+@item A
+View the annotations of all bookmarks.
+@item e
+Edit the annotation of the bookmark at point. If called with
+@code{universal-argument}, prompt for the bookmark to edit with
+completion.
+@end table

+@node Others, , Annotations, Usage

+in the list of bookmarks to see all available key-bindings.
