Function: save-place-mode

save-place-mode is an autoloaded, interactive and byte-compiled function defined in saveplace.el.gz.

Signature

(save-place-mode &optional ARG)

Documentation

Non-nil means automatically save place in each file.

This means when you visit a file, point goes to the last place where it was when you previously visited the same file.

This is a global minor mode. If called interactively, toggle the Save-Place mode mode. If the prefix argument is positive, enable the mode, and if it is zero or negative, disable the mode.

If called from Lisp, toggle the mode if ARG is toggle. Enable the mode if ARG is nil, omitted, or is a positive number. Disable the mode if ARG is a negative number.

To check whether the minor mode is enabled in the current buffer, evaluate (default-value \=save-place-mode)'.

The mode's hook is called both when the mode is enabled and when it is disabled.

Probably introduced at or before Emacs version 25.1.
