A @dfn{mapping function} applies a given function (@emph{not} a

special form or macro) to each element of a list or other collection.
|

Emacs Lisp has several such functions; this section describes

@code{mapcar}, @code{mapc}, and @code{mapconcat}, which map over a

list. @xref{Definition of mapatoms}, for the function @code{mapatoms}

This function applies @var{function} to each element of

results into a list, it returns a single list with all the elements of

|

using these modes, customize `display-line-numbers-type' with the same
|
||||
value as you would use with `display-line-numbers'.
|
||||
|
||||
If `display-line-numbers' is set to t, Emacs will display the number
|
||||
of each line before the line. If set to 'relative', Emacs will
|
||||
display the line number relative to the line showing point, with that
|
||||
line's number displayed as absolute. If set to 'visual', Emacs will
|
||||
display a relative number for every screen line, i.e. it will count
|
||||
screen lines rather than buffer lines. The default is nil, which
|
||||
doesn't display the line numbers.
|
||||
|
||||
In 'relative' and 'visual' modes, the variable
|
||||
'display-line-numbers-current-absolute' controls what number is
|
||||
displayed for the line showing point. By default, this variable's
|
||||
value is t, which means display the absolute line number for the line
|
||||
showing point. Customizing this variable to a nil value will cause
|
||||
Emacs to show zero instead, which preserves horizontal space of the
|
||||
window in large buffers.
|
||||
|
||||
Line numbers are not displayed at all in minibuffer windows and in
|
||||
tooltips, as they are not useful there.
|
||||
|
||||
The new face 'line-number' is used to display the line numbers. The
|
||||
new face 'line-number-current-line' can be customized to display the
|
||||
current line's number differently from all the other line numbers; by
|
||||
default these two faces are identical.
|
||||
|
||||
You can also customize the new buffer-local variable
|
||||
'display-line-numbers-width' to specify a fixed minimal with of the
|
||||
area allocated to line-number display. The default is nil, meaning
|
||||
that Emacs will dynamically calculate the area width, enlarging or
|
||||
shrinking it as needed. Setting it to a non-negative integer
|
||||
specifies that as the minimal width; selecting a value that is large
|
||||
enough to display all line numbers in a buffer will then keep the
|
||||
line-number display area of constant width at all times, if that is
|
||||
desired.
|
||||
|
||||
When using `display-line-numbers-mode', you can customize the variable
|
||||
`display-line-numbers-grow-only' to a non-nil value; this means that
|
||||
Emacs may grow the above area width dynamically, but never shrink it.
|
||||
Under this mode, customizing the variable
|
||||
`display-line-numbers-width-start' to a non-nil value will cause Emacs
|
||||
to set `display-line-numbers-width' to the minimum width necessary to
|
||||
display all line numbers in the current buffer when first visiting it.
|
||||
|
||||
Lisp programs can disable line-number display for a particular screen

overlay property on the first character of that screen line. This is
