,----[ C-h f line-number-mode RET ]
| line-number-mode is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `simple.el'.
| It is bound to <menu-bar> <options> <showhide> <line-number-mode>.
| (line-number-mode &optional ARG)
| 
| Toggle Line Number mode.
| With arg, turn Line Number mode on if arg is positive, otherwise
| turn it off.  When Line Number mode is enabled, the line number
| appears in the mode line.
| 
| Line numbers do not appear for very large buffers and buffers
| with very long lines; see variables `line-number-display-limit'
| and `line-number-display-limit-width'.

If the line number in the mode-line is not enough, maybe

is something fod you.

Bye,
