Inside vim editor in command mode you can go directly to specific line pressing line number (ex: 50) and shift g.

Or colon, line number, and Enter (e.g. :50 [enter]). It does the same thing, but is my personal preference over the 50G option.

Hi,

The “:set number or :set nu” is working great in VI.

Thank you!

Can VI display 3 desire lines such as line x(10), line y(25) and line z(50) only?
