Therefore each docstring needs to mention the other. Else the user won't know about the secret second hidden factor, and will be sure it is a bug. By the way, line-number-display-limit-width's docstring should say what nil will do, and/or how to always/never get numbers. P.S., "If the average length of the lines near point is bigger than this, then the line number may be omitted from the mode line." "near", "may" ??! Well all I know is if we do $ { perl -wle 'print "=E4=B8=AD=E8=8F=AF=E6=B0=91=E5=9C=8B=E8=90=AC=E6=AD= =B2" x 99 for 9..99;' ; seq 1111;} > /tmp/9 we start out with fat lines, and then end up with thin lines, and we get line numbers for the first few screens, and then it gives up. If at the bottom we do (what-line) then it remembers again, until we go back to the fat lines, where it forgets, even if we do (what-line). Anyway I bet these days the rest of emacs' brain is actually rather quite aware of what line we are actually on, and just this line-number-display-limit-width is left over from some older era... less -M and more's '=3D' have no problem.
