In the introductory remarks to the Less pager posting, I mentioned that
the '+n' linenumber option can be enabled by removing line 733 from
command.c.  This was in error.  The actual line number is 732, displayed
here:
			c = 0; /* mined doesn't accept '+n' syntax */

It should be straightforward to modify this section of code if your editor
uses different options to start at a specific line number.

Also, the default editor for the 'v' command can be set by using the $EDITOR
environment variable.  This eliminates the need to recompile after changing
EDIT_PGM in defines.h.  The default is mined.
