Bram's thoughts were that he doesn't want any new option for this. But patch 7.3.1115 changes the 'number' and 'relativenumber' options so that instead of resetting each other, they interact with each other, so that 4 different displays can be achieved: both set: relative numbers + absolute number in current line relativenumber only: only relative numbers, 0 in current line number only: only absolute numbers neither set: no line numbering > I'm finding that the relativenumber changes are breaking the an old and > fairly well-known method toggling relative and absolute numbers as configured > here: http://www.vimbits.com/bits/192 . Then fix it. It can no longer rely on the old behavior where one option resets the other, since the options were modified to interact with each other instead. If you like the absolute number in the current line, then you don't need to touch 'number' at all, just toggle relativenumber on and off. If you do NOT like the absolute number in the current line, you need to do "set number norelativenumber" and "set nonumber relativenumber" instead of just setting one option or the other. -- -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
