Is there any free text editor that displays number of rows?

Is there any free text editor that displays row number? Does microsoft visual c++ have this feature? If it has, how to make it display row number?

VS has it it is in the options... a text editor for other use though (other languages and such) Crimson Editor is what i recomend.

Notepad++
Great plugins, hex editor, macros, line numbers, tabbed, collapsing functions and statements, support for many languages plus clear and comfortable, almost the whole screen is left for the edit box :D

Thank you both of you!

The XP version of Notepad has line number if you turn on the status bar (View -> Status Bar) and you can use CTRL+G to jump to a line.

My favourite is still jEdit. Cross-platform, a whole host of plugins, pretty much everything.

You could check out the free software sticky; otherwise, try

• Dev-C++, a C/C++ IDE
• SciTE, a text editor that can be configured to use Borland C++
• ConTEXT, a programmers' editor
• Crimson editor, ditto
• PSPad, ditto
