Actually, there is a quicker way to test run...

{Esc}R <linenumber>{Return}  8-)

Best of all, and I think this is probably ultimately why I preferred GPLE,
the code you just wrote stays on the screen, if the code in question
doesn't mung the screen... 

And I rarely used auto line numbering.  Early on I used it, but the more I
wrote, the less I used it.

Well, I already admitted that my workflow was a little unusual.  Probably
affected by the fact that I rarely if ever wrote anything down.
