Yesterday I replied that the file size was 733K. That it was a log
file. And that setting an arbitrary/test value of 1000 (default: 200)
in line-number-display-limit-width solved the problem as far the the
mode line line numbers are concerned as they went from 'L??' to
'L<actual number>'. I can add that the file is a text file.
What else ? emacs is: GNU Emacs 26.1 (build 1, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, X
toolkit, Xaw3d scroll bars) of 2019-01-28.
Basically the use case is:
Load the log file. See that the line number display is:
'L??'. Try to set several bookmarks, they do not go back to the lines
they were set. Ask here. Modify the line-number-display-limit-width to
1000. See that the line numbers are now displayed. Set some
bookmarks. Bookmark behaviour is still wrong.
Let me know if there are other details that are needed.
