 Registers are named lists of text -instead of simply text- in order to interact
 well with multiselection. They are used for various purposes, like storing
-the last yanked text, or the captured groups associated with the selections.
+yanked text, the locations of selections in a buffer, or groups captured by a

+== Marks
+
+When a register is used to store a set of selections with the *Z* key (see
+<<keys#marks, `:doc keys marks`>>), the selections are stored as a list of
+spans, in a format similar to `%val{selections_desc}` (see
+<<expansions#value-expansions, `:doc expansions value-expansions`). However,
+the very first item of the list is of the form:
+
+---------------------
+/path/to/file@123@456
+---------------------
+
+...where:
+
+/path/to/file::
+    represents the filesystem path of the file where the selections were saved,
+    like `%val{buffile}`.
+
+123::
+    represents the value of `%val{timestamp}` when the selections were saved,
+    so the selections can still be restored after the buffer has been modified,
+    or modifications undone.
+
+456::
+    indicates which was the main selection, when the selections were saved
+    (zero-based).
+
+You can examine the content of a mark register by using `<a-p>` to paste it,
+so you can see all its items, not limited to the current number of selections.
