Display total line count

[jps]

You can used view.setStatus() to assign a persistent status message with a view - see the API reference for details. You'll want something along the lines of (untested, btw):

Code: Select all

import sublime, sublimeplugin

class CustomStatusBar(sublimeplugin.Plugin):
    def onModified(self, view):
        totalLines = len(view.lines(sublime.Region(0L, view.size())))
        msg = '%d lines' % (totalLines)
        sublime.setStatus('totalLines', msg)

    def onLoaded(self, view):
        self.onModified(view)

Other editors I've used would even show the decimal and hex value of the current character, which would be cool to have.

Does anyone know any way to do this? Even if it isn't in the status bar, though that would be ideal. It is something all the other editors I have used/tried tend to do, and something I find very useful.
