    Am I just dumb and I'm missing something here?  I cannot for the life of me figure out how to display simple line numbers...

    In the included Help File > Find > search for "lines" > brings up the Environment Options help page and it says:

    "Show lines number: This shows line numbers in the left the editor."

    Why am I not seeing this in the Environment Options?

      First :
      Tools->Editor Options->Gutter : Select 'Visible' and 'Line numbers'

      Then, if it still doesn't work :
      Tools->Editor Options->Syntax : in the field 'Type', select 'Gutter' and change the fore- and background colors.

      A note on this feature:  Some users (including me) have had problems if the gutter font is set to anything different from the editor font. You don't see any immediate problem, but after some scrolling in the editor, the text "breaks up", Dev-C++ crashes, and you can lose your work. According to a bug report follow-up, this is a Win 9x problem. (I'm using Win Me.)  Took me two days to figure out what was going on. Apparently there's no easy fix for it.....
