> A utility for numbering lines, either from a file, or from standard input.
- Number lines in a file:
`nl {{source_file}}`
- Number lines where there is printable text only:
`nl -t {{source_file}}`
- Number lines that match a regular expression (Starting with a Capital
A is Exampled):
`nl -b p^A {{source_file}}`
- Can be useful as an alternative to grep {{source_file}} -n
{{search_term}}:
