This is a simple batch file I created for myself. It allows map markers to be enabled and available for fast travel... look in the file for locations I've added.
Releasing it here in case someone else finds it useful
I'll add a few more locations here including DLC's that I think might be useful to me or if I get asked for them.

Only just discovered this mod/file, & I appreciate it very much, thank you!
If you don't mind me asking, do you happen to recall where/how you sourced the codes/IDs used for the ShowMap command, 'cos Google isn't even admitting the command exists, let alone providing somewhere to look up the codes?
As to where I sourced the stuff... I have to admit I really don't remember... sorry. I dare say though it was something I just came across and thought at the time that's useful and wrote this file using it.
Ok, I found a random (very random) page which had most of the information buried on it.
Here is the tiny amount I extracted & added (note: that I have "0" rather than "1" so that these are added as "Undiscovered/No Fast Travel" markers):
; ---------------------------------- ; The Civil War Map Forts ; ---------------------------------- ShowMap 16249 0; Fort Amol ShowMap 1624B 0; Fort Dunstad ShowMap 1624d 0; Fort Greenwall ShowMap 1624a 0; Fort Greymoor ShowMap 3F510 0; Fort Hraggstad ShowMap 1624f 0; Fort Kastav ShowMap 16250 0; Fort Neugrad ShowMap 16251 0; Fort Snowhawk ShowMap 16252 0; Fort Sungard
Edit: Might I request permission to post an abbreviated version of the batch file (Hold Capitals, the above Forts, Dragon Bridge, Ivarstead, Riverwood, & Rorikstead [i.e. The locations with flags on the Civil War Maps]) to the SkyrimMods subreddit, with attribution to this mod (or, if you want to add these to your file, that's fine too)?
Hello The-Wanderer. This works exactly how I wanted my map to work. Can I also disable my location marker by using this? If so what should I add to the text file?
I don't think there is away to remove enabled map markers... they seem to be stored in the save's for all time :(
You could possibly use "tmm 0" to disable them all... then use this batch file to just enable the one's you want. But I sure there is no way to just disable individual map markers.

New update available 1.01
I've added those to the bottom of the file.

If it was something completely useless like a light sabre the endorsements would be in the thousands by now :D
Thanks Wanderer!
