In Vim7.3 it's possible to enable relative line numbers. I haven't found a plugin for Visual Studio that does the same, I guess without VsVim it is not really useful.
However, if at all possible, I would really like to see this included in VsVim.
Also, an important missing movement for me is d/ - I often find it faster to use d/ when removing a few words.
Thanks, awesome job in general!

Moving the relative line number request out (probably a release after 1.0).
The d/ command (incremental search used as a motion for operators) is implemented in the next branch and will be a part of the 0.9.4 release.

This probably isn't necessary now that the RelativeLineNumbers extension ( http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/74d68e2b-ff64-4c51-a2ed-d8b164eee858 ) exists.

Closing as the relative line number extension is a suitable option here.

Unfortunately, the extension does not work with Visual Studio 2019.

@Samelandslaget The master branch of VsVim does include native support (not requiring an extension) for relative line numbers. The feature was added in #2571. You can use the nightly builds or wait for the next release of VsVim, which may be out shortly.
