It is quite simple to do, but you have to go through the trouble of
using a text editor.

Set the time zone, longitude and latitude, and altitude and save a
mark by an appropriate name. Fire up Notepad and delete everything
in
the mark file except the lines beginning with
"11 lat/lon"
"15 timezone"
"17 zonename"
"28 altitude"
save and exit. Now you should have a mark that lets you easily
change
your location. Yes, and be sure to make one for your default
location
(edit startup.mar and save it by an other name).

One of the top items in my wish-list: built-in control over what is
saved in mark files and hierarchial structure of the mark menulist.
