1 - Please turn off HTML when posting to a newsgroup. Not all of us
read news in a browser.
2 - Why do you want to display the line number?
If it's to be able to see what line the cursor is on, emacs, I think
by default, displays the line number in the modeline.
If it's to be able to goto a specific line,
M-x goto-line
is convenient.
If it's to step through compiler errors or the output of grep,
M-x next-error
is convenient.
