Description
Marks specified objects in GUI mode. This command places an iconic mark to aid in the location of the specified object or objects. The mark is displayed in a color as determined by one of the color options.
Objects can be unmarked with the unmark_objects command.
Note: Use only one color option. If both color options are specified,
-rgb takes precedence over -color.Arguments
-rgb <args> - (Optional) The color to use in the form of an RGB code specified as {R G B}. For instance, {255 255 0} specifies the color yellow, while {0 255 0} specifies green.
