Alt Codes will not work on Windows without a NumPad, or at all on Mac/Linux. In these cases, it can be helpful to have an in game note with the symbols so you can copy paste. They are generally only used in more permanent bookmarks, so should not be needed often.
Major Headings are Folders in Teal.
Minor Headings are Bookmark Types.

This can either be a singular folder or broken out into seperate folders for each type of perch. Different play styles will require different number of folders. The alt codes will sort the different types of bookmarks if you want to put it all in one folder.

For those that do lots of Moon Mining, maing some bookmarks around the field makes life easier.

These bookmarks are to our Control Towers that are naked towers with no shields. They are mostly for paperwork reasons.
Bookmark Expiry: Varies on the bookmark, but generally 3 hours or 2 days.
This is for random things and is purged semi-regularly. If it is not named something logical and has been there longer than a week, it will most likely be removed at some point.
Due to the frequency that these types of bookmarks are created, alt codes are generally avoided here and in Ω - Scans. Alt codes are much more difficult for those that play on a laptop, without a numpad, or on Linux.
Bookmarks Expiry: 2 Days
Bookmarks for all types of scanned signatures go into this folder. Due to the frequency that these types of bookmarks are created, alt codes are generally avoided here and in Temp. Alt codes are much more difficult for those that play on a laptop, without a numpad, or on Linux.
Simply right click on the signature in the Probe Scanner window and save location to this folder with 2 day expiry as is. No need to do anything special to these.
Exception: Wormhole gas sites spawn rats some 20 minutes after someone initiates warp to the site. You can call out when that warp has been initiated by marking the EVE time (without the colon) of that warp between the signature code and the signature name as below:
SIG-123 1420 Ordinary Perimeter Reservoir
You can then mark that the rats have been cleared out of the gas site when someone does so:
SIG-123 CLEAR Ordinary Perimeter Reservoir
When bookmarking a wormhole, be sure to bookmark the hole itself while on grid with it, rather than the signature. Wormholes are bookmarked using the following syntax (not all options will be used in every case):
[Chain] [Signature] [Type]/[Size] [System] [Status]-[Time]
+T
Static wormhole in home, where T = Type (see Type below)<-#
Breadcrumbs home, where # = number of connections to home (i.e. 3, if including this bookmarked hole, there are 3 wormholes to jump through to home)->#
Depth in chain away from home (if it's a Static in home, use +T
from above), where # = number of connections away from home (i.e. 2 if taking this connection would leave you 2 wormholes away of home)Enter only the 3 letters at the beginning of the signature code, so for "SIG-123" you would only enter "SIG"
Exception: If there are two signatures in the same system with the same three letters, i.e. "SIG-123" & "SIG-321", you can include the full signature code for those two in particular.

In J-Space, it is essential to know the path home at a glance. This same system can also be used when leaving out of a K-Space home.
Before you've probed the return hole, or if you are in a legitimate time crunch, you can use the below syntax:
<-2
Due to the mechanics of static connections, the K162 signature does not spawn until 1) someone initiates warp to the static signature, or 2) the static has <15 hours to live, at which point there is a chance every couple of minutes for the K162 to spawn.
As such, there can be times that it is not desirable to spawn the K162, such as when maintaining hole control. In these cases, you can bookmark the signature using the below syntax. The timestamp at the end refers to when the static spawned (if known).
+2 SIG 2/L DO NOT WARP 1234
Note: If and when you decide to fully map it, you will need to delete the bookmark of the signature and replace with a bookmark of the hole itself.
It can be helpful to know how deep you are going in the chain, or to see the chain depth when looking at the bookmarks. This is reflected in the "->N" at the beginning of wormholes leading out from home, in a similar fashion to Breadcrumbs.
If you are in a legitimate time crunch, you can use the below syntax:
->2 SIG
