[screen-devel] [patch] documentation addenum to command 'number'

[mrbrown8]

Hello everyone.

I saw the call for help with documentation over at
http://aperiodic.net/screen/doc-requirements and I wanted to try to
contribute. I don't have any experience with git or texinfo but I'll pick
up what I can. This is my first patch submission. Comments are welcomed.
