Thanks for this! Since my eyesight isn't that bad I found the huge bulky icons a tad on the offensive side. Thanks to you, I now have a sexy slim launcher again.

As for my 2 cents, gedit (out of the box) does show line numbers in the status bar, but the search option is of course far more convenient, since the line numbers change all the time. (as seen in the forum discussion above)

Cheers!
