In ed one can show line numbers using n. To delete line nubers is thus easy. In
sam - d it appears this is not possible. I understand sam is not a line editor.
What the would be the best way to delete a range of lines?

= prints line number
3,7d deletes some lines
Setting and working with the mark may also suit your problem
find a place, press k, find another place, then ',.d or .,' deletes
everything in between. Multiple marks à la ed would be a nice
addition to sam.

P.S. Here's a patch to make = mo
Many thanks. I will apply your solutions and revert back. It just seems a
little counter intuitive not to be able to show the line numbers as ed
does,especially if one is viewing a large body of text.

You can also try:
unix: ,>nl
plan9: ,x {
I mean, if you really want it, you can
,|awk '{print NR "\t" $0}'
then
,x/^[0-9]+ /d
or something.

I have applied the script and the suggestions are fantastic. For the kind of
work I am doing now, having the numbers helps me a lot, although I do also
understand the point Christ is making. Many thanks!
