Subject: relative line numbers and folding: how to make they play along?
Date: Mon, 11 Jul 2016 12:11:45 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAEwkUWPortxOyZ1WFLnMJhLYKSyeYJjWkpPYf9cheWUSabYXMw@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Hi good people,
there was some discussion in spacemacs about the relative line number
behaviour in emacs:
https://github.com/syl20bnr/spacemacs/issues/6536
In essence, currently relative line numbers in emacs are rendered useless
if folding is applied to the buffer.
Here's a nice example: left is emacs, right is vim:

One of the spacemacs maintainers specifically said: "I should note that due
to how folding and line numbers work in Emacs this would be nigh impossible
to fix."
I find that difficult to believe given how people in emacs community praise
about emacs infinite extensibility.
So I ask you, do we have tools to fix this behaviour or do we need a patch
in emacs itself?
Thanks in advance,
Filipe Silva
