Show line number on search

[yuric18]

Hi, I would like to request the feature of showing the archive line number next to the code found when I search some piece of code. I think it could be added as a setting such as "search.lineNumbers: "on"||"off" just like "editor.lineNumbers" setting. Do you guys think that is possible?

Just an example below:

Reasonable request, but since the viewlet is so narrow, it would have to take up horizontal space or get cut off.

What if it's enabled automatically when expanding the viewlet? Just like the extension icons and other info? Just like below.

+1 for this - moving over from another IDE I use this to quickly ascertain if results are in same method so I don't have to worry.

+1 as well. It's the one thing I miss from Atom

I probably spend 30% of my vscode time navigating through search results like a maniac, so having line numbers would be a terrific productivity improvement, especially now that we have "search.location": "panel". Thanks!

+1 After Atom looks like an obvious functionality

+1 for this. JetBrains does this and it's incredibly helpful.

@onqtam The setting is search.showLineNumbers. This is available in the current insiders version, 1.29. You can download the insiders version or wait until our monthly release next week
