You could always use e.g. 2↑ 2↓ instead :-). We also are more able to assume a \
decent unicode font.

We don&#39;t have to stick with precise Vim functionality, so what are you saying \
about prefixing the numbers before current line with minus sign? Do you think it \
would make more sense? In vim case it would waste one terminal column, but in kate \
it&#39;s few pixels.

Hate the checkbox, we realy need the &quot;:set numbers&quot; like functionality in \
kate. But for now it will have to do.

Don&#39;t like another vi-mode specific switch in kateview. In long term I would like \
to cut out vi-mode specific code from the rest of the codebase as much as possible. \
But that&#39;s for KF5. So go ahead with this. Let&#39;s see what will happen in KF5 \
at the end.

I agree that for non-vi-mode users this feature doesn&#39;t make much sense, so \
putting it to vi-mode only makes sense.

Since everything I&#39;ve described is optional, I&#39;m giving the ship it.</pre>

&quot;relativenumber&quot; option. In short, this means that in the left border we no \
longer have absolute line numbers but line numbers relative to the current cursor \
(see the &quot;relative.png&quot; attachment). This is useful since in vim all \
commands accept an optional number (that is relative to the current cursor). This \
feature is, of course, configurable and set to false by default. Moreover since this \
is a feature that, in my opinion, only makes sense in vim, I&#39;ve added this option \
under the &quot;Vi Input Mode&quot; tab in the configuration (see the \
&quot;relative1.png&quot; attachment).

This is cool and everything, but it&#39;s not fully working yet :( We don&#39;t want \
to be updating the left border all the time (otherwise the CPU usage goes kind of \
crazy, 20% more or less with KWrite). I&#39;m only updating the left border when the \
user moves up or down. However, in some situations the line numbering does not \
update. An example of this is opening a large file, going in the middle of the file \
and then starting to move up and down. For some reason in this situation the left \
border is not updated. Since I&#39;m kind of new to the KateView code, I&#39;d like \
to hear suggestions and tips so we can fix this issue :P
