I wonder why ‘display-line-numbers’ doesn't provide an option
to display line numbers relative to the window-start?
IMHO, one of the most reasonable excuses to sacrifice the screen space
for line numbers is to display only these short numbers that could be
used to jump to a line visible on the screen. For that the quickest
key sequence is e.g. 'M-5 M-r'.
Then all possibilities will be covered by these options of
‘display-line-numbers’:
- absolute line numbers can be used by 'M-g M-g' (goto-line);
- relative line numbers - by 'C-u N C-n' and 'C-u N C-p';
- window line numbers - by 'M-r'.
- Display window line numbers,
