Subject: bug#37120: [PATCH] Prefer display-line-numbers over linum in docs and custom
Date: Tue, 20 Aug 2019 19:26:02 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CADwFkmnxFvHtT=sPRBEz4fBTx_BpP2m3T6S4r1SHY5pBeF1FXg@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 545 bytes --]
NEWS.26 says:
'linum-mode' and all similar packages are henceforth becoming obsolete.
Users and developers are encouraged to switch to this new feature
[i.e. display-line-numbers-mode] instead.
This patch updates the FAQ to recommend display-line-numbers-mode over
linum-mode. It also changes one defcustom in progmodes in the same
way.
WDYT? And, if it looks good, should it go to the master branch or emacs-26?
Thanks,
Stefan Kangas
PS. I'm not sure if linum.el should also be moved into lisp/obsolete/
or if that's premature for 27.1.
