Hi Jesse, As I'm sure you have found Vim and OpenOffice can number lines. I assume that you need to reference paragraphs (rather than lines) to combat the reformating effects of sizing a html window - as the text reflows into window size. Is the numbering just for your purpose - or do you need to reproduce the docs with numbering intact?
You could perform a nasty hack: 1) Strip out headers etc, so just the body text is in tempory file. 2) Place text on (near) infinity long lines. 3) Number lines, with script/awk/vim/etc. 4) Reflow text into a sensible width. Simon.
