The straightforward answer is using formattedText ..... but the deeper
question is what line numbering you want for the lines when there is
line-wrapping happening. For instance, if it is something like a source
code editor, then the line numbers (IMHO) should be independent of the
size of window currenty in use.
For example, if I have the following text
1 My first line
2 this is a very long line of text that is going to be wrapped in a
moment when I make the window narrow.
3 third line.
Then when the window becomes narrow, do I *want*
1 My first line
2 this is a very long line of text that is going to be wrapped
3 in a moment when I make the window narrow.
4 third line.
or do I want something like
1 My first line
2 this is a very long line of text that is going to be wrapped
2a in a moment when I make the window narrow.
3 third line.
It really depends on whether you are numbering the lines of the window
or the lines of the underlying text (or source code, or whatever); quite
often, I suspect, it should be the latter. And in that case I don't know
of any quick or easy way to figure out how the numbering should be done :-(

I went with using a parallel field to add line numbers and it is
working well. However, rev only counts the line numbers based on the
delimeter. So if word warp is turned on you end up with more lines
then there are actual line numbers.
Does anyone know of a way to count all the lines, even the lines that
are wrapped and not separated by the delimeter?

way once, I actually wouldn't want to do it any other way in the future.

I am planning to implement line numbers in a proprietary text editor

going to implement it. I thought about using a parallel text field,
but there has to be an easier way. Any of you genius devs have any
ideas?
