Sorry, I never even used emacs ( vi rules). Just searched for a possible solution to your problem to assist.
The code seems like a bit much for putting in line numbers but you might try it - seems to be the only thing to do if you really want the line numbers. And I have no clue of how you are suppose to use the program. I didn't find any 'set up' instructions.
I did note the waste of cpu...
Setnu is a mode that displays line numbers in Emacs buffers, much as the "set nu" command does under VI, hence the name. Setnu works under XEmacs and GNU Emacs. This package is best used on files with a few thousand lines at most, unless you have very fast hardware and are willing to waste it recalculating and redisplaying line numbers. The latest version of setnu is 1.06.
