oa -- Option Absolute
|

|
|
default range syntax
|
|
1,$ oa
|
|
|
|
"oa" toggles the Absolute line numbers flag, which determines
|
|
whether the numbers in the left margin shall be absolute line
|
|
numbers, or the (usually capital) letters that refer to lines
|
|
by the position at which they are being displayed on the
|
|
screen. In any case, the current line is always shown as "."
|
|
(with the "->" arrow to make it easy to find), the first line
|
|
in the buffer is labeled "1", and the last, "$" (when not
|
|
"."). Lines can be referred to by letter ONLY when the
|
|
letters appear in the left margin.
|
|
|
|
For general information about the option command, type "ho".
|
|
See also "hln" for how lines can be referred to in commands.
