I do not know how to go to a line in 'Edit' when its line number is known. I need this because compilers give error messages with the line numbers in source codes. Thanks for help.

It should pop up a window to which you can type the line number, hit return and presto, you will be there. Same thing using the menu by clicking on Edit->Find->Line range.

It has helped me figure how to tell which line I am on also. Upon invoking command-l, the pop-up window indicates the line the cursor is currently on. Does anyone know if there is a way to have a running indicator appear that keeps the user informed of the current line number?
