You're correct. Thanks for reminding me. I had forgotten about
that because I just rolled back to the previous version.

From that previous discussion, I gather from other posters that
the original showmarks is probably not being actively maintained
and an alternative was presented by

https://github.com/jacquesbh/vim-showmarks
and
http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=2142

I'll give that a try.
cheers
