Re: Display Line Numbers in Internal Editor

Fair question. I think some of us want it because the internal editor is so lightweight, convenient and easy to use compared to editors that have line numbering.

Does the addition of a line numbering feature to the native editor have a downside? Perhaps it is too challenging to do, it adds unnecessary complexity, or violates a esthetic?

Why don't you just use an external editor that supports this?

Re: Display Line Numbers in Internal Editor

I second this request. It would be great to have a vertical panel of line numbers.

Re: Display Line Numbers in Internal Editor

The internal editor displays line number in on the status bar.

Or are you asking for a panel with numbers of all visible lines?

Display Line Numbers in Internal Editor

Although there is a "Go to line" option in the internal file editor, it is a little bit tedious to use this each time, so would be nice to be able to have line numbers as an option in the Preferences.

Thanks!
