How can I permanently enable line numbers in IntelliJ IDEA?
I add this response for IntelliJ IDEA 2018.2 - Ultimate.
Using menu
IntelliJ Idea > Preferences > Editor > General > Appearance > Show Line Numbers
Using Shortcuts - First way
For Windows : Ctrl+Shift+a
For Mac : Cmd+shift+a
Using Shortcuts - Seconde way
Touch Shift twice
These three methods exist since the last 4 versions of Intellij and I think they remain valid for a long time.
