This has the advantage of making microEmacs work the same as vi, rather than stopping the linenumber effect. --------------------------------------------------------------------- *** main.c Wed Oct 5 11:24:16 1988 --- main.c.org Tue Nov 17 11:32:29 1987 *************** *** 989,998 **** break; } - } else if (argv[carg][0]== '+') { - gotoflag = TRUE; - gline = atoi(&argv[carg][1]); - } else if (argv[carg][0]== '@') { /* Process Startup macroes */ --- 989,994 ----
