+<h3>Including line numbers in typeset output</h3>
+<p/>For general numbering of lines, there are two packages for use with
+LaTeX, <i>lineno</i> (which permits labels attached to
+individual lines of typeset output) and <i>numline</i>.
+<p/>Both of these packages play fast and loose with the LaTeX output
+routine, which can cause problems: the user should beware...
+<p/>If the requirement is for numbering verbatim text, <i>moreverb</i>,
+<i>memoir</i> or <i>fancyvrb</i> (see
+<a href="FAQ-verbfile.html">including files verbatim</a>) may be used.
+<p/>One common use of line numbers is in critical editions of texts, and
+for this the <i>edmac</i> package offers comprehensive support;
+<i>ledmac</i> is a LaTeX port of <i>edmac</i>.
+<p/>The <i>vruler</i> package sidesteps many of the problems associated
+with line-numbering, by offering (as its name suggests) a rule that
+numbers positions on the page. The effect is good, applied to
+even-looking text, but is poor in texts that involve breaks such as
+interpolated mathematics or figures. Documentation of the package, in
+the package itself, is pretty tough going, though there is an example
+(also inside the package file).
