numbers.vim

numbers.vim is a plugin for intelligently toggling line numbers.

This plugin alternates between relative numbering (relativenumber) and absolute numbering (number) depending on the mode you are in. In a GUI, it also functions based on whether or not the app has focus.

Commands are included for toggling the line numbering method and for enabling and disabling the plugin.

Requirements

• Vim 7.3+

Installation

Using pathogen or vundle for installation is recommended.

For pathogen users, clone the repo:

git clone https://github.com/myusuf3/numbers.vim.git ~/.vim/bundle/numbers

For vundle users, add the following to your .vimrc and then run a :BundleInstall:

Bundle "myusuf3/numbers.vim"

Usage

Once installed, no action is required on your part. But for convenience, you may want to add mappings in your .vimrc for some of the commands, e.g.,

nnoremap <F3> :NumbersToggle<CR>
nnoremap <F4> :NumbersOnOff<CR>
