using Less commands

Hello Listers,
I have spent some time in learning some of the commands for the Less
Utility Program. However, I am stumped as how to use the command to mark
the point in the body of text being read in order to return to it later.
For instance the help file says to mark the place to return to with
m<letter>.
Does this mean to use the letter m to mark the place? Whenever I do so, it
does not work. When I go to the top of the file in question and press
the apostrophe key which is supposed to go to the marker, nothing
happens. It just says marked text not found.
Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?
Also will the marker remain in place so that I can return to it at another
time? Or will it be lost when I turn off the computer?
Many thanks,
Ed,
