For many people, line numbers are the first thing they set up - I never understood that. I customize vim quite heavily, and have tried showing line numbers, but all they do is take up 4-5 characters of precious window width! I can see the current line in bottom right, and when I want to go to a line, I use `45gg`.
TL;DR people are different.
- psquid 10y agoI've never really gotten into absolute line numbers, but relative ones are a godsend for me since I use <num>j, <num>d, et al a lot but can't really eyeball how many lines away something is once it gets to be more than 2 or 3.
