I really wonder why this is not implemented. It's so easy to do in LaTeX, and we _really_ need it for our review process. I will never convince my boss to change to ConTeXt without document-wide line numbers .... :/ afaik in latex they tweak the output routine by handling line by line which is ok for proofing article like stuff where messing up the spacing is no problem
in context, which has much more integrated in the otr that will not work out ok and i don't like implementing things half broken (apart from not needing it)
I see.
in mkiv i will deal with line numbering in a different way (i have some experimental code) and there it will be available in a couple of months (i just need time and reason)
Great news! Is there a principle change of operation in mkiv that makes such new approach to line numbering possible, or is it just new 'motivation' to implement it in lua?
