You can use a text editor that is able to present line numbers or even 
provide a command to jump to a particular line number.  Matlab's mfiles 
also don't carry line numbers on the left side of them.  That's the 
Matlab text editor that displays that info.  In fact, if you edit an 
mfile so that it presents numbers in the beginning of each line then you 
will find out that both Matlab and Octave won't accept it and will throw 
a bunch of errors.


Hope this helps,
