		pwf on June 28, 2012 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Numbers.vim - better line numbers for vim I still feel like I have to do math (albeit simple math) with relative line numbering. If I want to yank a block of code that's X lines long, I have to look at line X, and add one to the number next to it. E.g., when I want to grab 8 lines, the last line I want to grab has a 7 next to it. I guess I think it'd be more helpful if the numbers were inclusive, and 1-indexed. I'm not sure how to configure that though.

Yes, I wish the numbering was 1-indexed. But by now, I have trained my brain to automatically add one. I would definitely prefer a fix where I don't have to do +1.
