Re: Line Numbers

[Marc Wilson]

Is there a variable that will force the line numbers on at startup, either global or .qerc ?  Reading variables.c doesn’t seem like there is one.

Indeed QE_STYLE_GUTTER is the style used for the line numbers:

    /* line numbers */

    if (ds->line_numbers) {

        ds->style = QE_STYLE_GUTTER;

        display_printf(ds, -1, -1, "%6d  ", line_num + 1);

        ds->style = 0;

    }

with a default definition of

    STYLE_DEF(QE_STYLE_GUTTER, "gutter", /* #f84400 on grey25 */

              QERGB(0xf8, 0x44, 0x00), QERGB(0x3f, 0x3f, 0x3f), 0, 0)

What style element name is the numbers themselves?  I figured out that “gutter” is the tray the numbers are in.

Hello Marc,

You can toggle line numbers display with the toggle-line-numbers command bound to "C-x RET l” and "C-c l”

This command can be found with the apropos command: C-h a line RET

Enjoy!

Can Qemacs number lines onscreen?  I realize there’s a line counter in the mode line.
