This extension displays line numbers relative to the current cursor position. Useful for ViEmu and VsVim extension users. Relative Line Numbers help you use the count you can precede some vertical motion commands (e.g. j k + -) with, without having to calculate it yourself. Especially useful in combination with other commands (e.g. y d c < > gq gw =).
Enable/Disable absolute line number on current cursor line:
Tools -> Options -> Relative Line Numbers -> Cursor Line Number -> Show absolute line number -> True/False
Customize fonts and colours:
Tools -> Options -> Fonts and Colors -> Relative Line Numbers
Tools -> Options -> Fonts and Colors -> Relative Line Numbers Cursor Line
