set bookmark with environment variable in vifm

Question

In the vifmrc I tried to set a bookmark like

bmark! $home/tmp tmp

... but that doesnt seem to work.

What I get is a bookmark with the path /location_where_i_was_when_setting_the_bookmark/$home/tmp or ~/$home/tmp

Is that a bug or expected behaviour, and if the latter my question is: (how) can I set bookmarks with shell environment variables.

I also tried to set reset the environment variable in the vifmrc before assigning it but that didnt work

let &home=$home
bmark! $home/tmp tmp

Answer 1

:bmark command doesn't expand environment variables as of v0.12.

For $HOME you can use ~ which is expanded.

For others try adding :execute like this:

execute 'bmark!' $wtmp 'tmp'
